It should be interesting following these potential #1 picks. Giolito is definitely intriguing, and could have very well already passed Appel to...
Astros.com has the transcript from Luhnow's chat session today up, see below:...
This is just about perfect! Let's hope we can use this picture many times during his tenure as GM. I need any and all excuses to see this pic.
I agree with you that the absolute best case scenario would have been for both Myers and Lyon to rebound and create some trade value before the...
I respectfully disagree with you juicy. If anything, if he goes out there and succeeds in the bullpen, I think that would raise his trade value....
Fair enough Cat, that is why I was asking what each person thought of Schaub going-forward. You answered it by saying he is capable of leading a...
So what is everyone's view on Matt Schaub? Reading everyone's opinion on him within just the past year has been interesting. It went from...
Thanks Clutch. When I originally posted it, I wasn't quite sure where to put it, so minor league thread seemed like the most appropriate spot....
So it looks like we picked up Fernando Martinez off waivers, per MLB Trade Rumors. Low risk pick-up, and surely he is better than a few of the...

That World Series year was great, and I had a hell of a time going to each of the playoff games. I will never forget that experience, I wish it...
Per Peter Gammons, it looks like it is going to happen. Link to mlbtr:...
I just used oody illiams (haha, I like that) as an example, trying to show that the "cost" is relative, and that I rather allocate our funds to...
He was referencing high school pitchers that went #1 overall, so Bryce Harper would not qualify. I would be very surprised if we selected a high...
You and juice are certainly correct, but there is risk every transaction a team makes. It boils down to a cost/benefit analysis. But I sure as...
Ok cool, I think I understand. I agree with your overall premise, and I certainly would not want to tank for the first pick. I will have to...
