He's rule 5 eligible this offseason I believe. He should probably get a September call up to see just how worth protecting he is. However, he...
It was an honest question. I'm not calling for his head nor do I think it's on the table. He's done an excellent job getting the astros to where...
Question for the masses: If Luhnow was fired this off season and say Alex Anthopolous was hired, how would you feel about that? Luhnow is...
The shotgun approach was fine in 2012; I don't believe it's still valid in 2016 given the current state of the Astros. There's a limited number of...
I don't blame him for not trading Bregman. Top 10-15 (A) level prospects rarely get traded. The statistics show the failure rate of elite...
He's definitely re-made the organization in his image, but becoming GM obviously hasn't magically changed his judgement. Although it would be...
For me, this is the pressing question of Luhnow's tenure as GM. He's proven his farm-director ability to build up minor system with talent. Now...
What are you his mom or something? There are far worse things than being fired for poor performance and getting to keep the multi-million...
Granted I thought this about Rasmus last offseason too, but i think Fister is fringy QO guy who'd probably best be locked up by the Astros for a 3...
i'm interested in Ramos and another bat like Encarnacion or Reddick.
Reed and Bregman are going to get their playing time. I don't think anyone in the FO or fandom thinks otherwise. Figuring out what Tucker,...
I think if Valbuena plays it smart, he could play himself into a 4/$40-$50 plus comp situation. Desmond's problem was he came off a bad season...
Maybe, maybe not. I do firmly believe that wins and losses matter now even if they're eliminated. They still need to develop a winning culture....
It's not a baseball IQ thing. It's a loyalty and veteran deference thing. If Valbuena comes back healthy before the season ends and he gets...
I think his point is that Valbuena projects as a 2nd division regular. The Astros have been a 2nd division-level team for most of this season, so...
He's proven himself at AA. Wonder when he gets the call to AAA.
If you told me none of those players made a significant contribution in '17-'18, I wouldn't be surprised. I 100% agree with Hey Now that getting...
Lived in Texas up til college, did college in Atlanta, med school back in Galveston, intern year in Nashville and am doing residency in San...
He's got better stuff than I thought. MOR seems appropriate. Some days MOR guys pitch like #1's, somedays they pitch like #5's. Saying he profiles...
My big pet peeve has to be senseless drivers. -I can't stand having to go around someone in the far left lane on highways. It's a passing lane....
