Not sure if Adam Jones might be a player who comes up in the trade discussions. I believe he's owed around $12 million this season, which is the...
The O's are pretty weak at 3B... I think their plan is to run Tim Beckham out there in 2018. If they feel 3B is an area they want to strengthen at...
I wonder if the O's would consider trading Mychal Givens and if so, who the Astros would have to send them in addition to McHugh. Givens is a...
Defensively, Stassi is superior to Gattis and offensively, he is projected to hit for right around the league-average OPS ~.750. Last season, he...
Possible catching duos this season and next: 2018: McCann / Realmuto McCann / Stassi McCann / Gattis (assumes Stassi injured or flops)...
I imagine a lot of Luhnow's decision calculus here comes down to questions like: 1) How well does the coaching staff think Stassi will perform...
Adding Rivero would make the Astros bullpen downright scary. I wouldn't move Whitley or Tucker for him but I'd be willing to give up Alvarez and...
I think that is basically the reason why the team hasn't aggressively gone after Lucroy. Stassi looks to have a fair shot at doing everything...
It's been announced that Aoki is returning to his former club in Japan....
My bad, meant to write AL Central not East. The main thing the Astros have to avoid is a prolonged period of not playing up to their potential...

wh It's looking like the Rangers & Athletics pitching will be weak all around. The Angels may be so-so in their starting pitching but their pen...
MLB.com put up an article today about how severely Marwin exceeded his projected offensive output in 2017. Looking at all qualified batters from...
Ichiro earned $2 million last year. If he wanted to accept $2 million as a roving batting instructor in the Astros system, I'd be all for that....
Marisnick posted a .985 fielding percentage as an outfielder in 2017, lower than his career average of .991. I haven't calculated his career...
The .815 OPS was awesome to see last year. My guess is his defense has passed its peak, but mentally he can improve his game enough to get the K's...
Jake and Marwin top the list of hitters who most improved the distance of their fly balls in 2017....
Dean Deetz just got suspended too, right? I read 80 games. this will free up a spot on the 40-man.
I give Sipp 50% odds of pitching well enough to make the Opening Day roster. He has a lot riding on this year's performance in terms of his future...
