    The suspense is killing me.
    Is Verlander in play?
    Are we being played?
    Who’s it for? Chas? Gilbert?

    Mets want the Astros to stock their soda machines with Pepsi... Astros countered with Sam's Cola.

    Not sure if this can be solved as the two sides seem far apart

    With the Mariners apparently selling now, do we think Logan Gilbert is available? Seemed like ppl were saying he wasn’t but that was before all the mariners sales trades..

    One thing that keeps them
    Close is Verlander. He might be saying it’s Astros… I want out of NY

    Chas sitting today, so he must be one of the Mets guys…. But then we’ll need another CF! UGH!

    I’m totally fine if we have to give up Chaz for JV, but only if we somehow trade for Soto. I don’t see a reason why we would have to give up Chaz. Give them Meyers or prospects. I can’t imagine why the Mets would be demanding Chaz considering they are trying to stock up on prospects.

    Actual conversation between JV and Kate

    JV "Babe, NY sucks now... how about LA?"

    Kate: "Hollywood's on strike so no work anyway!"

    JV "Back to Houston then?"

    Kate: "I could go for a Whataburger!"

    *Good thing JV didn't mention "In and Out" otherwise no deal*

    Have a feeling the Astros make two big moves. Just a gut.

    Doubt it’s that straightforward… and if the Mets don’t get what they really want, they just don’t trade him. Only thing that impacts things is if JV demands a trade… which is doubtful.
