To be far, Rogers is a set it and forget it prospect. Either his bat jumps 2 grades or he's glove-only backup. He's never going to be a sexy...
Collapse is probably a harsh statement but that's perfectly reasonable to me to think if they both leave we won't legitimately be competitive....
We have more of a window than people think. We have Altuve for three more seasons. Keuchel is a free agent next off season. I'm all for continuing...
I agree with Snake; it'll be a defining contract Luhnow's tenure. Off the top of my head it's the largest FA contract he's given out. We all know...
In my opinion it'll be a little tough if we're taking Bregman off the table. We don't have a ton of the flashy 5-tool or TOR potential prospects...
That seems like fanboy/fangirl blog post version of the USA Today article.
The lineup definitely needs to be lengthened so its not 1-4 vs 5-9 but I think that's a consequence of not having enough good hitters rather than...
We have Altuve under contract for 3 more years. We got tons of prospects but we got limited time with our best player.
Jon Kemmer's quietly been having a very good last two months. He's hit .298/.398/.618 with 10 HR since July 1 for a season slashline of...
A USA today article on the state of the Astros: Link I found it after reading the TCB's Daily Crawfish Boil link to the Lone Star Ball (Rangers...
This is the crux of the conversation between myself, the Beard, and Hey Now over in the Gurriel thread.
I have a 2007 Honda Accord my parents got me while I was in college. Still going strong, no major mechanical issues. Don't drive very much, just...
Solid post. I agree with everything. Once I heard Nook's narrative about what happened leading up to the deadline, I softened my stance...
My friend... I'm not sure you know baseball. :grin: (I got nothing else, just wanted to inject some humor into the day.)
I'd love to see Brady Rodgers take Mike Fiers starts for the rest of the season.
Pretty sure Luhnow is on record saying he went hard after the Giles deal particularly because he had a lot of cheap control left. No doubt Giles...
Nice review. Thanks Snake. I doubt Luhnow regrets any of those moves. JD and Villar got their chances on bad teams and Velasquez has pretty...
The Texas league is a pretty hitting neutral league while the PCL is definitely hitter friendly. It's probably why a bunch of our hitting...
Brady Aiken got his first win last night: Link Hope he can come back from what was probably his first major set-back in life. The picture in...
They're definitely going for it now, but this year isn't the end of the window by any means. Mazara/Odor/Profar form an excellent young core....
