Unconventional buy side trade for improving the roster: Astros get: OF Wilyer Abreu RP Garrett Whitlock Red Sox: OF Cam Smith P Ethan Pecko P AJ...
The offense is going to have major issues so long as Altuve and Correa are both on the shelf. At this point they have 3 quality hitters in...
Burrows and Imai will be in the rotation unless they’re hurt. Imai requires a 6 man rotation so that’s that. 1. Brown 2. Arrighetti 3. Lambert...

From fangraphs prospect chat today: Runelvys Presley: Jason Schiavone has the highest ISO of any professional player with >50 PA, but he didn’t...
I think Houston just had some data that convinced them that power is the most valuable tool and was willing to overlook a lot to acquire it....
Good point. In hindsight once Houston lost Bregman and decided to trade Tucker they probably should have done more to rebuild their farm system...
The strikeout issues on the position player side are just ridiculous this season. Yamal Encarnacion, Alejandro Nunez, and Pascanel Ferreras are...
The article makes a very good point about Crane's age. He probably will not stomach a full rebuild and in fact is probably pretty dead set on...
I just feel like 25-22 would make Crane think they have a shot and compel Dana Brown to do something stupid like trade Kevin Alvarez for a Sandy...
I don't think it's anywhere near outside the realm of possibility that their callups and other non-tradable assets could perform at negative war...

Astros match up well with the Cubs. Could be a sweep that draws us all back in with false hope.

Yes I agree. And honestly I'd rather them go 10-37 than 25-22. The worst outcome would be they give enough hope for Crane to demand they buy at...
Pecko’s overall stats in AAA this season are really good, but he has yet to go 4 innings in a start and his last outing was 5/15 where he walked 4...
Astros signed former Cardinals farm hand P Andrew Marrero. He is…and you’re not gonna believe this…a pitcher with strikeout stuff who struggles...
Not that it refutes your overarching point, but one reason the AAA lineup is so bereft of prospects is because of the injuries at the major league...
There’s 47 games left before the all star break. Houston probably needs to go 27-20 at worst (putting them at 47-51 overall) to be in striking...
The Astros are just not getting the development gains they needed from their farm system to project a new window opening in the medium term....
