All I said is I don’t put anything into the timing of the “reports” and media talking points and that same is not proof that AB’s return is likely.
Correct. However, the Astros have been trying to trade him since the beginning of the offseason. Th trade finally went through because HOU was now...
I do not put any credence in the recent media pontifications with the actual probability of an AB return. Just because it's being talking about...
Definitely will be interesting. I was drawing up Parades trades but I think our FO is going to be a bit too excited to part with him just yet....
I used Verdugo as an example of a level of OF'er we can expect to get. Maybe it is via trade and not FA, and yes, maybe slightly better....
I’m guessing this gives us the breathing room to sign Verdugo to a 1-2 year deal. As unsexy as that is I think this is the most realistic outcome.
Crane does not seem like an owner who is going to dump Pressley solely for salary reasons. These has to be another related move.
People forget that Craig Biggio was one of the greatest athletes in MLB history. Like, top 10 territory. He could’ve gone pro in football. The...

It’s not the sexy choice, but I think the front office is going to double down on Melton and the farm. I don’t see us signing somebody like...
Resign Bregman, add Austin Hays and Soroka and call it a day.
Just sign Bregman and let the farm resolve the OF and other lineup issues. Path of least resistance.
My morning starts off better whenever I get to see a Tony Sipp reference
CWS fans just endured the worst season of all time and have like the 10th pick lol. It is very unlikely any team is able to pull off what the...
The categorical aversion to ~6+ year deals I would argue is a zig to the zag, so to speak. Whether it works out, we will see. I think Astros are...
Of course our odds will take a dip, but odds are not what ends up winning in October. As long as we give ourselves a chance to punch a ticket to...
Austin Hays would be a solid under the radar addition.
I remember when some of yall wanted to trade Tucker and more for Realmuto. it was a pleasure watching him grow up here. He’s on his was to a...
