If he can show anything with the bat he is a high level prospect. Said by many to be the best defensive catcher prospect they have ever seen.
Oh I'm not worried about it at all right now. Just something to put in the reserves and think about for later... just enjoying the ride.
He is a UFA when Keuchel is, Altuve the next year, Springer shortly after that, etc. They just aren't going to be able to keep everyone unless...

He's going to get 4/$60MM or something like that if the bat plays at around an .800 OPS for this season and next. Much younger than Zobrist was...
Ah yeah, forgot about him. But he was always going to be a one year stop gap regardless.
On the topic of future FAs, only upcoming ones on the 25 man are Beltran and Gregerson. I think it's highly likely that Beltran retires and that...
Marwin isn't a FA until after '18. Astros have him for $5MM next season.
22-7 with a +65 in May. Insanity.
Don't look now but Bregman all of a sudden has a better season OPS than Benintendi. While playing a significantly more premium position.
Breg is back. Let's f'ing go.
Paulino is going to be really good once his delivery tightens up and his mechanics become more repeatable. I trust the development guys.
Forgot how much late juice Paulino has on his fastball. Impressive.

Giles trade all of a sudden looking pretty good for the Astros.
This team is relentless.
He won't be there long.
hahahaha
