Isn’t he 33 or 34 years old? I would not be comfortable with a 4 year deal since his playing strengths are due to his speed and athleticism.
Jon Gray would be a great get especially since he wasn’t offered a QO.
National reporters are saying the Astros are offering Dusty a contract later this week. The only thing that isn’t known is whether the lowball him...
Seems like the problem was the pitchers not executing more so than maldy calling the pitch. So many times he was setup high and in to righties and...
What GM is perfect? If you recall, the last GM traded Hopkins for peanuts, and resigned guys to overpriced contracts. The players you listed were...
Lol it took so long because of incompetence at the GM position. It’s obviously good news that Miami is having to trade more players to get...
Lmaoo the team’s payroll continues to increase year and year and you call the man cheap? Imagine having an owner like Cal McNair. You’d definitely...
You do realize they’ve won the 2 games in the series because of great defense? Knee jerks are serious right now lol
Let’s trade Cooks while we’re at it since he’s a high cost player on the roster when the team should be loading up the tanks!
Getting Graveman is a huge boost! Yes today can be upsetting, but if you look at the whole picture, Graveman and Garcia are 2 closers who are now...
That’s cool and all but I’m sure the team chemistry takes a hit with this trade. If they are so high on Meyers, they could still bring him up and...
I would rather have Straw still here than a guy with a 4.5 era
Nope. We just traded a good CF for an unproven, below average reliever
Still…. Why trade a major leaguer for him? Trade some prospects and Raley to offset salary instead of Straw.
So where are the people saying the Straw trade meant the Astros are getting another CF in a trade?
I don’t want injury prone buxton. Even if this leads to another trade, why not trade straw for whatever trade comes next? I trust stanek more than...
Straw for a below average pitcher? Not liking this at all
lol getting 2 closers to shore up the bullpen doesn’t blow your skirt up? 28 teams would love to be in the same position as Houston.
Exactly. Unless it’s Lee or Leon, winning a World Series will make us forget about trading away whatever prospect for a difference maker
Makes the early trades of Graveman and Garcia looking pretty good.
