    Maybe if the market truly craters we can sign him up to be a super-utility

    Also, no better place than Houston to do sports medicine...except the first surgery apparently

    He'd give great insurance on Pena bregman altuve and could even play some outfield . I like the dude that said CF

    I'd say bring him back. But we prolly need to save for pitching

    The ultimate shake up:
    Brantley to RF
    Tucker to CF
    Altuve to DH
    Bregman to 2B
    Correa to 3B

    he'll work out a new lower deal with the mets, probably similar to MN's 10 year offer

    He should work out a bigger deal but with club opt out if this old injury becomes an issue.

    Why not the Astros give him 6 yrs $160

    Jim Crane can make a Huge Statement to Outside Fans and the Media if Carlos doesn't receive the best offer on the Mets, Twins and the Astros swoop in and get Carlos.

    The Justin Verlander Money the Astros didn't use is open to spend.

    The meltdown will be Epic.

    Shohei Ohtani as a Free Agent will be Next

    You need to stop smoking. I am not signing a player with a timebomb for a back AND ankle. Jim Crane made a statement by winning the World Series again and signing Abreu.

    World be all in for breaking the bank for Ohtani.

    Easily 10 yrs 500 million, I'm all in.

    Top 10 hitter, top 10-15 starter.

    Ohtani is either staying in LA with the Angels or Dodgers, or going to NY with the Mets or Yankees.

    Got to think Giants have an outside chance as well.

    You must smoke for a living.

    Astros still are going to be aggresive
