We would need to acquire a RP via Meyers.
I agree with the potential for the extra year of control, unless he comes out raking in ST again. Still, he will definitely be called up at some...
I agree a lot with the spread. However, I don’t think I see a world in which Cam Smith gets zero starts, unless he is traded, which I think is...
Unless Altuve plays regularly in LF, I don’t see the starts for Matthews.
It sure feels like Cole is trending toward being the primary CF. If all this happens I think the Astros go more traditional and place Duran as...
Yeah, I lean more toward a trade because they would be blocking Cam, Cole, Dezenzo. Duran Meyers Sanchez Cam Cole Dezenzo Unless they want to...
I actually think this is realistic if the Astros feel like they are in a big place of need, or if they value Duran more highly than we think. We...

I follow the logic, but I don’t see it playing out that way. The Astros seem committed to increasing Altuve’s time at 2B. I think Donovan would be...
I agree; there is also a lot of cash available to acquire better players; and there is usually a lot of pressure to perform now—which naturally...
Extended Altuve—A+ Extended Javier—C so far; this year could make it an A. Traded a year of Tucker for Paredes, Cam, and Wesneski—A+ Helped open...
Such a lack of gratitude.
Good offer. I prefer the power and speed combo of Duran over the contact hitting of Duran, and I would rather an everyday OF than a utility player.
AND stay under the CBT.
