After seeing how the deadline went, do you think he had the ability to spend "well" above the CBT??

    Should've found a way to get a catcher that can hit more than his weight and I value defense/came calling/pitch framing.

    Also a solid Jody Mercer type utility INF wouldn't have hurt a thing.

    If that put them over the tax so be it.

    He did quite well in AAA this year. Yes, in other minor league years he was OK.

    Yeah, agreed. Plus the fact that Click and others in the Astros FO have remarked on the colossal steps Meyers has made this year to tap into his raw power.

    I'd like to see Meyers get a similar amount of PT to that of Chas. At least for the next month or so.

    Maybe one of them can catch fire with a .600 OPS for the playoffs?

    :eek:
