Those 6 plus Ort and either Dubin or VanWey could be an elite group. And like you said the rotation is in good shape if 2-3 of the mid/back/depth...
If he’s able to replicate last year’s overall numbers but with 25 steals instead of 11, he’s probably a 2.5 win player and a very solid 9 hole...
Updated injury timelines: Whitley is throwing his final rehab innings tonight and should be back in Houston’s bullpen this weekend. Ort is also...
Jake Meyers is on track to reach a career high in steals by the end of April. I don’t expect him to keep up his luck punching singles through but...
Dubon should certainly be traded this offseason if not non-tendered, he’ll be in line for $6M-$8M and he is not worth that at all, not when a guy...
RP don’t usually need more than a few rehab outings so my guess would be next week.
Cam Smith is already an adequate defensive RF and is well on his way to being a very good defensive RF.
I have never particularly enjoyed watching the last 2 innings of games where the Astros have a narrow lead, but last season and still this season,...
Who knows what will happen but I expect Gusto to stay up as insurance for McCullers, although I expect McCullers to be fully stretched out to...
They liked what they’d seen in Gusto, they figure that McCullers (or Arrighetti) will be back after 1-2 more rotations, and probably didn’t want...
Rodgers pinch hit last night.
He is somehow both underrated and absolutely not at all the kind of player I would give $100M to.
Quality starts thru 3 turns: Brown 3 Wesneski 2 Framber: 2 (has had 4 turns) Arrighetti/Gusto: 1 Blanco 0
You are probably right and I think Crane thinks as you do. The odds of Houston pivoting to rebuild are probably very very low. That said,...
The projections still paint this roster as a contender. Fangraphs has the position player projected to finish with 28.2 fwar and the pitchers...
I feel like the season so far has been a near worst case scenario offensively. Not only have none of the upside hitters broken out, but the 3 of...
A sad fact is that Yordan is the only hitter Houston has who pitchers fear. Yainer, Paredes, Altuve, and Walker are hitters pitchers respect, but...
Astros need to trade for Nootbaar and Donovan.
Yes, if you ignore defensive value for one of the 5 best defensive CF in the league, he doesn’t look like a very good player. It is really...
That’s probably a sane approach for all prospects.
