So basically you're max valuing all the Astros players and dismissing the DBacks's players' value.
Cheaper in the sense that he's probably gonna settle for a 1 year make-good contract. AAV wise I could see him getting something similar to Brantley.
Haven't heard anything on Alvarez's hand in a while, but at the time it was reported as a non-structural injury. I interpret that as something not...
Happ's not a FA and would be kinda pricey trade wise at this point. The price may come down at the trade deadline. IMHO, Benintendi's not a...
IMHO, no. That's not the Astros' MO to skip HiA. Javier, Valdez, Urquidy and Garcia all got at least 60IP at HiA. The Stros are much more likely...
..... that's the underpinning of any valuation in a market- based system. Organizations have their own valuations which are based on their own...
The stros are uniquely positioned to contend in the next 3 years without needing impact prospect contributions in the present. IMHO, anything they...
Honestly, probably not gonna be a top 100 prospect. No shame in that but he’s probably gonna take the Javier/Garcia route of minimal prospect...
Think it’s a metaphorical closer to home as much as actual distance. Culturally, the west coast (and NE) have larger populations of Asian people...
(To a degree, I understand we're spinning wheels here.) Money is definitely a consideration for the Rays, but they usually get the better player...
Spotrac is great for retrospective data but their projections are very hit and miss. I'm 100% certain that Jose Abreu will have a higher AAV...
Projected WAR is inclusive of bust potential.... You can directly compare projected fWAR and surplus WAR (WAR relative to salary) in a trade...
Feel like you're stating obvious points: established players are more valuable than prospects, prospects can bust, etc... There is absolutely a...
Way better pure stuff across the board than Keuchel. Dallas was pure soft tossing lefty with impeccable control. He'd pound the outside lower...
This is a very strange take. Maybe 1:1 they're not worth proven young talent but top 10 prospects are pretty only traded for proven all-star...
Of course we all hope he's utterly terrific, but I think there's room for some regression and to still not feel terrible about it. Even if he's a...
Eh. Not saying they couldn't have done better but they were never going to be the top offense. They had 4.5 above average hitters: Bregman,...
That's speculation. The padres pounding their chest doesn't make them any more or less likely to get him. Crane could announce JV is his top...
Lol, I can think that Click got a raw deal while also being happy he's no longer the GM. It's in the organization's best interests to have the...
Stunning fall from grace for Frankie Perez. Roughly 3era in A+/AA at 19. Average to plus 4 pitch mix. Think he got as high as top 50 on prospect...
