Yes.
He’s a monster upgrade of Chas on both sides. His power and speed are better than Contreras. And I don’t see the Astros wasting his gold glove in...
In extensions.. 5/150 for Framber 6/180 for Tucker Would put the Astros payroll at 74.5 mil + Arb in 2026 with Alvarez and McCullers locked in.
Thats a lot of money for a third place team
He can’t stay healthy that’s what he reason. I don’t like bailing teams out of big money deals.
Varsho is a gold glove OF with nice speed and power. You dont risk his knees giving out and losing all of that.
A gold glove OF who hits 25+ homeruns, steals 15+ bases, hits LH and has four seasons left of team control is worth the loss of Garcia or Urquidy....
Top WAR FA’s are starters(aside from Correa. We aren’t spending on Rodon and he wouldn’t sign with Houston anyway… Eovaldi and Bassitt both had...
No. I’d still take the Astros lineup overall and bullpen by a landslide. Astros have a starting five that can dominate their lineup.
Let em pay 200 mil for those 100 innings a year for all i care.
Don’t bail out the Rockies.
Maybe. Astros are in a great position in 2026 at the moment only have McCullers and Alvarez with guaranteed deals at 44.5 mil + about 20 mil in...
he is if the Astros are in serious talks with Barnhart
Saving that money to re-up Altuve, Bregman, Tucker, Valdez, etc over the next few three seasons helps the team way more than still owing a player...
I think if the Astros want a starter, Bassitt, Eovaldi are atop the board. I’d rather take a flier on Kluber or Grienke on the under 10 mil 1yr...
Barnhart and Navaez would be the type of reserve C that 90% of the league would hope too have.
I could see that offer.
no one’s a better buy low option than Brantley. Gallo strikes out too much.
Is this a proposal or for real?
Not even the best team in their division probably not second best either.
