What, exactly, does any of this mean? He's hovering just below "average" this year; how is that not a "MLB level player"? He has the same OPS+ as...
He’s 27 and controlled for 2 more years after this one. Actually rather smart to not sell him when his value is at its lowest.
Used to be midnight EST. That was always fun - but it makes for bad TV/news so they moved it up. Pretty recently, too - the first Verlander deal -...
I can't imagine Caratini has the same market as Diaz.
Bart was really good last year, offensively. Has a .343 OB% this year. I'm guessing - if true - it signals we're offering or being asked for one...
Nothing has been officially released. It's an insider; the Astros have not said anything publicly.
I've watched Alcantara pretty carefully this year (I own him in my fantasy league). He's unquestionably an adventure. First the bad: He's not...
We really need to stop advocating for the team to pack it in and give up on a season in which they lead their division. Certainly not ideal - but...
Also, we shouldn't discount odds being improved, even if it's just a little bit. That matters. Games are won/lost by the thinnest of margins - any...

Correa posted an .844 OPS in the three definitive post-cheating seasons ('19-'21). His first year in Minnesota, he posted an .834 OPS and last...
You (generally) don’t platoon players that hit from the same side of the plate.
Willie Castro was just pulled in the 9th inning; hugging teammates & had a long talk with Correa before heading to locker room.
Correct. It's definitely paper - though numbered so its a REALLY good paper card. Bowman Chrome has CHROME under the B/circle logo.
While now might indeed be peak time to sell - a numbered autograph doesn't lose near as much value. That's a gigantic hit. Congrats!
Wonder if this is the first step in Ryan O'Hearn becoming a Houston Astro?
Morton has been a consistent, healthy innings-eater the past four seasons, and has been notably better his last 8 starts (2.85 FIP and 10.3 K/9)...
I think this post-ASB series with Seattle is HUGE in terms of how aggressive/desperate the Astros will be @ the deadline. Win 2+ and you then play...
I'm not, and there's no hypocrisy. Team reporters have no obligation or expectation to publicly declare their outrage when other teams they do...
Almost certainly. And neither Footer nor Drellich would've been expected to add to that discourse - they did not cover any of the teams associated...
