[Official] Astros @ Rays

Matt Chapman is on pace for a 5+ WAR season and will likely opt out so he won’t be the only “good option” but yeah there’s zero chance Bregman takes $20M

 

Bah...was hoping we'd make 'em pay for their catcher's screwup

 

We haven’t scored an earned run against the Rays pen in these 5+ games yet.

 

Buyer beware with him. Even moreso than Bregman.

 

Astros will offer Bregman 5/130

He will sign with someone else for 7/196

 

Altuve has Boras as well... and didn't swindle us...

 

Rook is off the hook for the botched no-no

 

Please be ok, Blanco

That was scary

 

Blanco is dealing. Love to see that again

 

Did it hit his pitching hand?

 

I feel sorry for any team that overpays for him with all of his Ks and non-clutch ability.

 

Damn

 

With how many bad pitchers that seem to throw well against the Stros, I sometimes feel like Stanek could pitch a complete game shutout.

 

Ort warming up

 

I mean Bregman gives you half a season every year. Obviously Bregman is the better player but there are down sides to both of them and I don’t think the difference is that large. Depending on the price, Chapman may be a better value.

 

Just a routine 1-6-3 groundout

 

I always believed in Ronel Blanco.

 

Very realistic numbers. I still think it gets to $30 million plus as both the Dodgers and Yankees desperately need a 3B.

 

Perhaps but his glove and baserunning provide a solid floor. At worst you’re getting a 3+ WAR season from him.
