I'm fine with the taking the best talent and fixing with trades later. I don't expect picks to be perfect such that it is hard to predict what one...
Yep. I will add that only 12 teams* control their own pick completely in 2027 with 2 season to go and only 20 teams* still own their picks...
I'd say the Jalen extension and KPJ extensions are probably the worst decisions by Stone. Hindsight may show the Green and JSJ picks could have...
56 wins without bubble and 56 with bubble prorated to 82 games with a 67-win SA 10 years ago, bumping up the average. Recently, it has been about...
Yep. I'm guessing it will be for future picks as I don't a big trade happens draft night. It would be really nice to have 7 tradeable FRPs this...
So Stone gets hammered for drafting obvious pick Bari, but little to no credit for obvious pick Amen? I do get that Stone's strategy of getting a...
Sure, a team can win despite the manager. The Astros can obviously win with Espada over a long stretch despite not having a juggernaut. Espada...
I used FanGraphs last Calendar split. The Astros had won more and played as many or fewer games than any AL team over the past year.
So this feeling is what Kings fans feel like being in the lottery nearly every year. Exceptions being the Kings haven't won 52 games in over a...
I'm doubtful Altuve gets to 125. On Cam, he'd probably need to be around 125 wRC+ to be better than a 100 wRC+ Meyers as I expect a wide margin in...
With Espada as manager, the Astros have the most wins of any AL team over the last 162 games.
I'm not sure any of the OFs hit much over 100 wRC+ (or OPS+). Not counting Chas, I think Meyers can spot 25 points of wRC+ to the other OFs and...
Hot Take: Meyers is the best OF* the Astros have, and it doesn't look close. *Assuming Alvarez isn't counted as an OF.
This. Though, I don't get too worked up over a bad year.
No Clay Allen to work his magic? He brought us Amen and JSJ.
I still don't know why they didn't take him to RFA. The only reasons I can think of are that they really like Green's potential or that the...
I thought his offense wouldn't be good enough for the hype he got early in the season. I'm not sure when it happened exactly, as I find Duke...
Whether he's a vessel or not, a lot in that article seemed worthy of putting stock in. I am pretty sure the Rockets are leery of Durant based on...
I think OKC's payroll, while in a great situation as basically everyone is on a good salary, gets tough very quickly with SGA, Chet, and JW all up...
Jalen Green is a sunk cost. The Rockets have early Bird rights to FVV. The money can't be spent elsewhere. I do think the Rockets take into...
