Adding Yordan and possibly Javier for the 2nd half, for free, is pretty damn good. So go get O'Hearn and a cheap #5 SP to help keep the rotation...
He should have been traded and replaced in the offseason. Sign/trade for another post season caliber starter like Flaherty or Alcantara ( we had...
That's an unfortunate truth. It's time to gamble on Arrighetti. I think if a young pitcher has a good work ethic, attitude, and true K stuff you...
I don't know either However, it has been reported that Hunter wanted an extension in the 2023-2024 offseason and when an agreement was not made...
Well, last year, the team couldn't even get one bat (picking guys off trash heap doesn't count) so what makes you think they will even try for 2?...
I don't think it would effect Altuve's % of playing time at 2b during the season but if everyone is healthy, would expect him to play there vs RHP...
I think the single biggest detractor of his value is the fact that he has no options. Contending teams will likely he hesitant to claim him as...

I think O'Hearn needs to be #1 hitter target. A BOR SP still needs to be #1 though. 3 rookies in the rotation right now and 1 of the veterans...

Forrest may still end up a very good pitcher in this league. But regardless, the Astros simply need to move on at this point. And I have full...
He simply has too much talent to not get claimed. All MLB front offices are filled with Ego. Several will need to find out for themselves. But,...
Huge win.
Another aspect of the weak run production, you use your leverage relievers more and sometimes need to try and get through the late innings with...
It's really tough when your starting RF is sick, your backup RF is on yhe IL, your 3rd RH is on the IL, your 4th RF is on a limited schedule to...
The word is he is over it but with increased risk of relapse so he is on "a program"
Arizona selling.
In addition, Chandler Rome reported that the Astros are limiting his reps due to his back issues. I guess they don't want him to play more than 4...
Caratini being one of the 9 best hitters on this team is exactly the problem. Even more to the point, the fact that Astro 1b have an 87 wRC+ and...
