We can certainly disagree with this, but the main thing is clear- there isn't really anything good out there in the FA market.
Not sure. I can understand the Astros being firm on the $156/6, but there are creative ways of making this work out for both. $142.5/5 is 28.5...
Been looking at the available free agents OF and 3B and so far the only name that seems very cheap and serviceable is Tommy Pham. He can get on...
I agree, and that's why I think Crane feels he's doing Bregs a solid with that offer. If he doesn't take it then he'll find a replacement...
I'm actually starting to wonder if Crane really cares if Bregman comes back. He may be thinking, "If he doesn't accept the fair terms then we...
Bregman also was getting only 2 years at $28.5 mil/year (with his overall avg being only $20 mil/year the last 5 years). Why would he think he's...
I think Bregman is taking his time mulling the offers knowing the Astros original offer is still there. And the Astros are waiting for Bregs to...
True again, but Houston plays most of their games against Texas and Seattle (no state income tax) vs Detroit. So that needs to be factored in as well.
True, but $20 mil is not real dollars when taxed in other states :)
My wish list- One of the below: -Bregman -Arenado -Robert That is all
The issue with Arenado is convincing him to waive his no-trade clause. I think he still doesn't want to come to Houston.
I wonder if this is like a price match thing with the Astros. Show Crane the flyer of the other offer and we'll pay.
I am not be opposed to a Springer Dinger for Paredes swap.
That's the sad thing. Being stubborn just to be stubborn leads to regret in these situations.
Bregs is in a pickle. Detroit may be the tall blonde that'll allow him to buy his sports car he always wanted but Houston is the mother of his...
It almost feels like Bregs and the Astros are just merely going through a trial separation over pity stuff, but eventually you know they'll get...
It's cool. Rockets don't win the division anyhow this year so it was inevitable
Call the play for someone above 5 foot 6 to drive the ball.
I mean how in da F do you take a 3 down by 1 point with time on the clock. LOL Fred got to be one of the dumbest players alive
Told ya we ain't sweeping this team.
