    He is garbage.

    Having said that I wish him well. He actually works very hard and listens to his coaches.

    He will hit 45 jacks with a 269 average in St. Louis.... The Astros will end up with Valbuena at 1st for 150 games.

    All of this clearing money is pointing towards a run at a big time FA in my opinion. Like Chris Davis big.

    Davis will cost 5 years - 100 mill.

    Thanks for everything, CC. A split is best for both sides.

    Addition by subtraction. Was hitting .180 for the season at one point. Definition of feast or famine.

    If he returns to his post all star break 2014 self, he will be a nice pickup.

    Wish he could've maintained it in Houston.

    Right move, but just to be clear, he was much better than J.D. when J.D. was let go.
