Abreu was coming off a terrible season in 2023. Singleton was a backup plan that turned out to be necessary. They may not value a backup plan at...
I have doubts they'd do 3/90. I have doubts about the 6/156 being still available, too. Feels like the die has been cast.
You misunderstood my post - I wasn't suggesting that they would bring in another guy to be the 13th man, or that they'd have Dezenzo in that role....
Yeah, it's the lack of roster spots that prevent us from carrying guys who can only play one position on the bench. 4 bench spots - one will be...
The name rings a bell.
I don't see why he'd command big money. He's a role player. 12 and 7 with 35% shooting from 3. I think he's probably a 15/9 type at his peak...
Heyward is washed. He's 35 and has been below average offensively for 3 of the past 4 years. He's also lost range and hasn't played much center...
The most important pitcher in Astros history. And the Astros have been blessed with amazing pitching through the years.
Yeah, it's a slow decline though. He's one of the more consistent players in MLB in terms of delivering 4+ WAR every season. The slow start cost...

Well there have been only like 15 contracts of that size, all over the past five seasons. So there’s not much sample size. But what you suggest...
The Astros were not going to market their franchise around him. I disagree with the idea that he's not marketable. The Giants could certainly...
Meyers is worth that money only if you don't have someone cheaper to fill that role. But good defense, bad bat CF is a pretty replaceable...
I suspect Meyers and Chas might take those deals, but I don't think the team makes those offers. I think Jake's a likely candidate to get dropped...
Go watch Phoenix games again. Book is basically playing point for the Suns. His last 4 games, he had 9, 9, 10, and 10 assists. Tyus Jones is on...
He's in the bottom 1% for exit velo and in the bottom 5% for hard hit %, barrel %, sweet spot %. I'm not sure he's got twice as much power as a...
Jake McCarthy is Myles Straw if he was a lefty.
The cap on the SALT deduction expire in 2025 and Trump has intimated he wants the cap removed. That would change your math quite a bit.
