If Crane is going to replace Dana Brown, I'd pick Matt Kleine from the Brewers. He actually interned for the Astros in 2007. Does player...
Burrows curve and changeup are really good but his 4s and sinker have been awful even though they have decent velo and movement. Last year his...
I don’t know what the EV was but he put a good swing on it and it didn’t look like a cheap HR. Holy might be a prospect.
That is good, Astros really need some sign of hope. Houston’s crew of young position players are getting up to some meaningful thresholds for...
This team is legitimately bad. They might be really good later this season but for now they are terrible and not fun to watch.
Yep, I’m ready to see him in AAA.
Boston is not giving up the #11 prospect in the league for Paredes. Especially in a season where they are already 11 games back in the division....
Walker Janek is starting a rehab assignment in the FCL today. Joey Dixon was placed on the 60 day IL. After missing all of 2024 and 2025, he...

Bohm and Mountcastle are very likely to be worse than Walker. There’s a lot of season left to get a better feel for how Imai, Burrows,...
It depends on how you define “contender”. The roster I outlined above (with Houston backfilling their roster with 2-3 good free agents) is...
I don’t really relish the idea of trading Walker because between his salary and partial no-trade clause, I don’t see him having enough value to...
Abreu is the only 1 of those 6 players I listed that will be a free agent after this season. Paredes, Pena, Meyers, and Lambert are controlled...
I am not saying Wade was as good overall as Luhnow. I was just highlighting that Wade had a better track record of drafting good players outside...
I looked up Ed Wade’s track record on this topic. Wade had 5 drafts as Astros GM (2007-2011). He drafted Jason Castro 10th overall and George...
We’ll see. I think we can all still enjoy the rest of the season as long as expectations are properly set: As of now there’s only about a 10%...
