This signing will make a ton more sense if he ends up being our 3rd string center. Sounds like there’s built in flexibility with the deal.
It’s possible. It depends on several things, but it is entirely possible.
I can see Capela and Sengun battling it out for the starting spot at center. This is not a Bruno Fernando situation…Capela is a legit starting...
Yes. Just connecting dots. The Rockets overpaid to dump Tyty and Garuba. That deal makes no sense in isolation. Then we find out it’s getting...
I think Capela is headed to Houston.
They believe he is one of the best, if not THE best wing defender in the NBA. Defense is THE priority for next season. not more complicated than...
very likely no connection, but there’s all the rumors flying around about Donovan Mitchell to the Nets. Houston has KJM and the Nets picks. Wonder...
I wonder if Jarrett Allen is our backup plan for Brook Lopez.
I would do a double sign and trade with the Nets for Cam Johnson if that kept his price tag down, but I think Detroit would blow that up.
Trade Tate for a future 2nd (salary dump) Sign Fred Van Vleet: 3 years $100 million, last year team option Sign Dillon Brooks: 3 years $45...
If it’s just a 2-team trade, I expect that this is in part a salary dump of Bertans. Houston: #10, Bertans Dallas: #20, Tate Trade would be...
Im fine with the way Houston does business. Option #1: You get him for 3 more years, plays like a superstar, wins you another WS or 2, and then...
Im good if we just get a Javier extension. There’s some downside, but also more upside.
Id love that move. If Abreu can be stretched out, you’ve added another potential ToR to the rotation while maintaining a strong bullpen. Also...
Astros continue to play for WS titles while other teams play for playoff contention.
Adding a bit on to this… Our current “window” is really 3 years. That’s how long you’ve got Yordan, Tucker and Abreu committed, and you could...
Looking at the roster and years of control… 1st Abreu (3) / Hensley (6) 2nd Altuve (2) / SS Peña (5) 3rd Bregman (2) LF Yordan (6) / Brantley...
I would 100% support that. Keeping the pitching locked in a lower rates would give you a lot more flexibility on the lineup side as guys like...
There’s a bit of a dynamic where if you bring in a pitcher, reliever or starter, someone has to be traded. Less extreme if it’s a position...
Yeah but just a .553 OPS against righties last year. Rough.
