    I think a 2-3 year deal benefits both. He can rack up cheap homers to boost his value and get market in his early 30s for a final pay day...

    I'm a snowflake because i block people pushing politics and not sports?

    I was asking about his behavior in the clubhouse and nothing more.

    It was blown up because i asked 5 or 6 times a simple question related to his behavior in the clubhouse and no one would answer with anything other than complaining about political tweets after he retired.

    Call me annoyed if you want. You not taking the time to understand the context prior to commenting is just laziness.

    I'll leave it at that because i don't want this turning into some political debate. Stick to the game...

    Wow this is all my fault. Huff played for us in the 2-3 yr window that I kinda stopped watching. I had **** going on, and it was that period where we were pretending to contend but not really. Right before the tank. The ‘89 and ‘90 teams were kinda like that too.

    so I dont recall much about Aubrey’s time here. Sorry everyone.

    actually i just saw he was here in ‘06. My bad. Not sure why I don’t remember much about him as an Astro.

    Speaking of not caring about accuracy, neither Buck or Fulgore mentioned politics or Trump. Here were their responses to you:


    Maybe the problem is not them.

    Side note: I hear Aubrey Huff was an *******.

    hmmmm, let’s see. Who was the first person to interject politics into a baseball discussion? Someone was very very eager to stand up for the oppressed white Christian victim without any reason to.

    If he signs anywhere other than Houston or Baltimore I'd be shocked.

    Trey Mancini Swing on his First 2 Home Runs is 101 mph

    That is All Star Level, Astros Scouts definitely take their Radar Gun to check out the Hitters Swing Speed. Smart move by the Astros Scout to check out Trey Mancini Swing Speed in Baltimore.

    Cool thing about Trey being slow... Hit it out the park and he can run the same speed as a single.

    I like the stat that he would have 21 homers already had he started with the Stros. Basically current Springer without the defense. I'll take it!
