    To be fair the Stros have made a living off of underrated prospects like Javier/Framber /Garcia/France etc...

    I take back every bad thing I said about Luhnow and his trades.

    Just got home from the Juice Box. You're wrong. You have to be wrong. I hate you. I hate myself. What's the point? Help!

    You're right.

    Still need that bat

    Diaz would be very good.

    I'm thinking it's totally out of nowhere somebody No one has mentioned or thought of - Kerry Carpenter?

    I’m not looking forward to how TB will ass rape Dana and Crane for Diaz. Let just stay put and give Singleton a chance. It’s not that I don’t want a bat. But it’s how can we trust Dana, Crane and his Country Club boys to do the right thing anymore.

    Have no choice

    Unless Leon comes in like Raul Mondesi ( which I don't expect) this team is still short a bat. I love big Jon but he aint the answer.

    Rays get: Melton, Baez, Matthews, Chas

    Pass, gotta keep Matthews and I would try to keep Baez too. Would put Ullola in their place, plus a guy like Gomez or Cole

    Agree, I wouldn't give up that much for him. Brown might though

    If Brown is all in on this year I could see him going for it. After seeing Diaz contract I say go for it. Particularly if he can play 3B.

    He hasn't played it in a couple of years, but i'm not sure if it's because he wasn't great there or they just had better options

    Man that's the type of return you used to give up for someone like Mark McGwire or Mark Teixiera. Guys that are perennial all stars and absolute powerhouses in the middle of anyone's lineup. Now, that's the asking price for a guy that's 8 years in the league with two seasons of higher than 1.5 WAR. Tough times out there for contenders

    Paredes was a great option.

    I would love Luis Arraez on this team.
    He can at least move a runner over when needed
