    It certainly might

    And while I like Archer more than Yu as a starter over the next 4-5 years

    The real choice is likely something like...

    Archer

    or

    Yu, K Tucker, Martes, Feliz

    I know the money isn't anywhere near the same, but keeping those young guys it would take to get an Archer balances that to an extent

    Having said all of that, Archer is the guy i've wanted us to go get for a couple of years now and i'd be super excited if we did

    Surprised on the take for Longoria. I guess it was more of a money dump.

    They're definitely rebuilding and Archer would be an amazing get

    Verlander, Keuchel, McCullers, Archer, and Morton with Whitley waiting in the wings? /drooool

    Unfortunately its going to at least cost Kyle Tucker and more to get it done
