    One of Britton or Hand will be an Astro. Calling it now.

    It's looking like Oriole's probably pulled back UNLESS Astros swooped in after the moves Yankees and Indians made.

    If we had Morey as Astros GM... we would have Gray and Britton and Darvish and no farm system after today

    And I would have been okay with that.. Probably a WS title as well.

    So that leaves Hand or nobody. This is starting to shape up to be a massive let down.

    Big letdown.. If we don't win it all this will be a huge discussion over the offseason. Not only will clubhouse be upset, but I doubt when free agency comes up our stars will want to stay at a place that doesn't do what it takes to win. Really sad.

    It's almost like they're different sports, and one guarantees playoffs success a lot more by adding talent.

    I'm fine with staying put. This is baseball, getting Britton/Darvish/Gray ups our chances this year from probably like 20% to 25%.
