Ask Verlander
I can see the Rangers getting a lot better this year. I can see the Yankees getting a lot worse. It is possible the Rangers challenge for a WC...
DeGrom looked very healthy when he came back last year. I like this deal for the Rangers.
I live in DFW. Finally, a reason to go watch a game without the Astros present.
Yuli sucked at 1B last year. -9 OAA. It didnt kill the team. Contreras can handle 20 games in MMP.
As @Nook stated earlier today, its not a LHH that should be a priority, but a hitter that can hit LHP and RHP. Bagwell said he wants more of an...
It’s just speculation on my part, but i dont think it would be easy to trade without a GM. It seems like we are very set at targeting FAs this...
You dont see the odds of increasing mistakes over an extra 50 games? At MMP i am not concerned about Contreras in LF for 20 games.
Totally agree. The whole point of dialogue is thinking through things together. WAR is based on time played. Its not the best stat for comparison...
Contreras hits the ball VERY well. He would easily upgrade our DH with Alvarez in LF. Lee already had some time in MLB and struggled. Its hard to...

Fanduel is projecting Benentendi for 14/per. At this point in our system, we cant rely on 2 rookies with less than 70 innings to assume 50+ games...
I think its more like: 40 C 70 DH 20 LF (MMP only)
My dream 26 (bust the tax!): 2B Altuve SS Pena LF/DH Alvarez 3B Bregman RF Tucker 1B Abreu CF Nimmo (20M) C Contreras (18-20M) LF/DH Benentendi,...
If we sign Contreras and a LHH, there will be little starting opportunity for Dubon.

Heyman predicting Astros sign Contreras and Brantley.
Heyman: Word is, the Astros and Justin Verlander are “far apart” in talks. Verlander seeks $130 million for three years (the Max Scherzer deal),...
My number one, two and three biggest variables with free agents: 1) Do they want to play for the Astros? 2) Will they accept a reasonable offer?...
Now compare him Now compare him with Jake Meyers and Maldanado. I would have no issue with Benentendi being signed here, but there are a lot of...
