    McCullers YES, so much talent being infused into the system! You have to think the Astros would not make this pick if they couldn't sign him.

    Saving money on Correa... for McCullers. Well played, Luhnow. Well played. I will love you forever if you punk Scott Boras.

    Great pick if he can start and he can sign him .... but he might have to relieve and is tricky sign.

    would have preferred one of the lefties .. virant or smoral because they are alot safer ... now if one of them falls to 61 !!! that would be awesome

    Hey, Fergie Jenkins. I got a picture with him a couple of years ago during Spring Training.

    Crap. Just found out McCullers is a Boras client. He'll definitely want his pound of flesh after what happened to Appel earlier...

    Unbelievable this kid was a top 5 pick when we were looking at projections last year! he only slid because of sign ability issues. Just wow if McCullers signs this is an AMAZING coup!!!!

    It fell perfectly, Correa for a bit of a discount and then throw the extra cash at McCullers. Absolutely perfect if this works out.
