I like it except I'd go top tier reliever if McHugh is moving back to the rotation (Britton/Miller).
It boils down more to whether everyone would rather pay $10 in health insurance premiums and deductibles or $9 in taxes.
The surplus. 'Taxes are higher than needed so we're going to take less' It was the combination of the tax cut with Iraq/Afghanistan that was the...
Yes. That should be a reasonable payroll increase.
The Astros free agents (and Singleton!) Represent ~55M in salary from last year. Assuming that is the FA budget from the MLBTR list I'd go:...
I predict that Keuchel is offered the QO but walks and is replaced by Gio Gonzalez.
I never thought he had a chance. I also hope Cruz gets primaried in the future because he has no interest in being our representative. He's...
When you have Cole and Verlander, not sure TOR would be the target. Seems like outside targets in free agency would be more the Gio Gonzalez,...
Beltre or Cruz for DH makes too much sense to not happen.
QO for Keuchel and Morton Let Sipp, Gattis, McCann and Keuchel walk Resign: Marwin, Maldonado, Morton Sign Catcher: Yasmani Grandal/Wilson Ramos...
Cora and Beltran were the real hitting coaches last year
It seems like they are guessing. There's no way that last pitch ever looked like a strike even factoring in tunneling

Morton is significantly better with more rest. 1.85 ERA this year's with 6+ days of rest. 2.65 last year.
I'm still flabbergasted by the insistence on throwing inside. Two, 2 strike counts ending in HBP then another inside for the HR.
Why keep pitching inside?
I'm fine with leaving him in. It's a long series.
