    I don't know baseball, who is the Astros short stop now?

    one of the only reason I started watching Astros Baseball was because of how much sh*t Correa was talking then backing it up.. i loved it. I'm going to miss it.

    I don’t think so. If Astros were really concerned about his long term health, Correa would too and take the Baltimore deal for 300M. You don’t turn down 300M if your back is bad.

    Diaz, Goodrum and Peña. I hope they give Peña a chance.

    Astros offered 5/160 in NOVEMBER. That's 32/year vs. the 35.3/year the Twins gave.

    I mean....WTF is going on here? We couldn't get to THAT number? FFS Crane you cheap SOB.

    Doesn’t make a lot of sense since they already offered him a 5 year/160 million deal based on the same medicals.

    Cristian Gonzalez and Shay Whitcomb but those guys are in A ball...at least 2-3 years away.

    And of course Aledmys Diaz.

    This **** is all on Correa not Astros ownership. If he wanted to be here he could have worked a deal. **** that guy

    Pedro Leon too. But he’ll more likely to play CF than SS.

    You think he wants to be in Minnesota for a year?

    Crane understandably wants more of a commitment… but with a core that is set to expire in 3 years regardless, including the fact they just basically signed Verlander to a year to year deal, I don’t really get the play here at all.
