    No way that is happening. You shocked me there for a moment. I thought you were responding to a news report.

    There is even more pride taken with this championship team looking at that graphic of "how teams were built".

    Trout is paid a market value salary- with no excess value. If the angels truly decided to move on from him (they should) their return wouldn’t be all that much. Hunter Brown alone could very very very well be an overpay. Hell, trading my fandom could be an overpay based upon Trouts recent inability to stay on the field.

    Overpaid from the Astros. Angels better be paying some of that Trout money and take out Abreu.

    Bellinger at 1B anyone? LOL
    Maybe getting him of CA, where weeds is legal, will help his career. Would be hilarious if Correa go to Dodgers and we get Bellinger.

    Yeah, we would need someone inside organization to whistle blow for it to hold any credibility and have media run with it...but then again. MLB will probably just keep it out of the media and not do a thing.

    I love Maldy so very much and was probably the most excited of all the new Astros to experience a World Series championship.

    Someone will spill some beans when they retire. No idea who but I wouldn't be surprised one bit.

    Glad to see Lewis gone. He couldn’t stay healthy but when he was… he hit very well against us

    He hasn't been good since they cracked down on sign stealing.

    They have several offers out but most of the better players are trying to develop a market. They have a bit of a hard on for Contreras.

    My honest reactions:

    If J.V. resigns: "I love you J.V., you are where you belong."

    If J.V. signs elsewhere: GTFOH and take your beech with ya."

    It is an insane position to be in when you can see a current cy young winner walk and be like "it sucks...but it's not the worst thing." My word we are all going to look back at this team and take what's going on for granted. (This wasn't meant as a slight to the poster at all, I have no problem with those reactions lol)
