You are absolutely right, I should add that as Scenario 3. I don't see him accepting the QO, I think he wants that fat, 3-5 year deal. And I...
You are right, as I was writing my post, the little light bulb went off, and I could definitely see why the front office targeted him at the...
I agree, and in a few posts above, actually think he will go back to the Braves this offseason. I just asked the question why we would want him,...
I've felt like this before the season started, and nothing has developed to change my mind; this almost has to be his last season as an Astro....
He provides that valuable veteran presense/leadership, and the pitchers absolutely love pitching to him.
Waiver wire and claims system is pretty standard, I think. Claims only comes into play for dropped players. For example, Lou Trivino (some RP...
If I were a betting man, I think Morton remains an Astro for a few more years, I think the 2/$30M you threw out there is fair and reasonable for...
Thanks man, I've gotten pretty lucky. Most of this is all luck, regardless of how much credit we try to give ourselves, haha. I traded Starlin...
We have to start saving up now, since Wilson Ramos is going to cost us $38M per year, on an 8 year deal. We got this.
House meetin' y'all!!

I am just catching up this morning, so I still have several pages to go. But I wouldn't call getting drunk and then getting behind a wheel very...
Sure, but it seems you are arbitrarily deciding what is considered a "small trade." I'm not trying to argue with you, I just think off the top of...
The haul we got in the Cosart trade, the fact that we got anything for Carlos Lee, Josh Fields for Yordan Alvarez. ...oh yeah, and the 2017 World...
Another sweep, but this time we are on the right side.
Here come all the holier than thou dipsh*ts. Same "journalists" that completely ignored the steroid era because it was good for the sport and...
Why can't the clubhouse full of good dudes help elevate the guy with questionable history, and make him a better person? I will be honest and say...
A perfect example of a "meh" move that made an unexpectedly huge impact was last year's waiver claim of Cameron Maybin. I actually credit him...
