ah, yes. How could I have forgotten El Caballo
forgot about Kent. The only other one I remember was Woody Williams. Ugh
Is Abreu our best (and/or, biggest) “external” FA signing ever (that is not a resigning)? Reddick was the only “big” splash I can recall…

Excited to see the grown from Gilbert and Melton. Really hoping they do well and that our ML/scouting departments can keep churning out high...
I could see LAA overpaying for JV or DeGrom with Otani/Trout window potentially waning…I wouldn’t put it past them to ink one of the star SS FAs...

There was a time when I really wanted Rodon No. 1 overall. The he floundered a bit, then succeeded…certainly a name not many have brought up with...
[MEDIA] FWIW Lester got JBJ and Schneider contracts right.
What would Yanier’s best case, medium case, and worst case comparisons be? I know there have been Carlos Santana comps on this board. Maybe that’s...

Bellinger seems like a very NYY-type move /pick-up. There’s been some chatter in the other thread about HOU signing him, but I for one hope the...
I never got the infatuation with Varsho but will defer to the CF nerds on him since I have never seen him play. Stats looks pedestrian.
if we can’t afford JV then we in all likelihood can’t afford degrom. And FWIW there are rumors that he’s looking for 4/5 years.
First, it shouldn’t really matter where a prospect ranks in a given system, especially one like the Astros that’s not a top 5-10 farm. To acquire...
that seems light for 6 years of control. I was thinking something like Brown, Garcia, Leon, Lee, and a flier…but maybe I’m way off. I would think...
