Defensive abilities that Martinez does not offer. Versatile player around the IF. Couple him with the right prospects and I think they’d listen.
I’d just go with the House talent.
Nice monologue of a dialogue.
White and prospects to Cardinals for Martinez. Bring up Perez for the last bullpen piece. CF Springer LF Brantley 3B Bregman 2B Altuve RF...
No comparison in a team that starts 5 players and a team that starts 9 hitters and a slew of pitchers.

Yep. Except our GM is passing too.
I love the way we always assume people would choose HOU above any other team if all things were equal. Just because we have a great team and...
