I like Arrighetti’s upside and I don’t want HOU to punt Walker. We need him to step up.
This would be awesome.
C Diaz 100 g, Salazar 60 g 1B Walker 150 g, Diaz 10 g 2B Altuve 100 g, Paredes 50 g, Allen 10 g 3B Correa 140 g, Paredes 20 g SS Pena 150 g,...
If you remove Paredes, you are relying on Brice, Dezenzo, and Allen to backup the entire IF. You would be asking for all of our IF to play 150...
Arrighetti He has 5 years of control left; the 5th year would cost 21M (option). That’s really 4 years of control left—the same as Arrighetti.
If the Astros add Bello and reduce our hitting to a pile of rubble….
I’m not a fan of this one at all.
yeah, I’d say, whichever one they can convince to sign for the minimum will be the one they use to compete with Salazar for the job in spring training
I would not be in favor of limiting our bats like this.
Suarez and Ozuna are the last thumpers left on the market. neither of these guys are going to command significant AAV deals. I expect the...

I think it is a lot more subjective. The Cubs were willing to pay a huge amount to get one year of Tucker. Prices are based a lot on demand; not...
The best time to trade him is at the end of this season. Another good reason to keep Paredes.
Yeah, I agree. It would be fun to assemble the ultimate contender. But—that it is even a conversation is nuts—the Dodgers are that loaded.
Here’s a fun one: if you could take ANY player NOT currently on the Dodgers in the entire baseball world, and build a superteam, how many games...
The Astros aren’t bringing in anyone to limit Altuve’s playing time.
I think Paredes is a perfect player for the Astros.I prefer they keep him and find a way to get all of these guys in the lineup daily. But if the...
For 2026, I think this weakens out batting quite signicantly, if Cam returns to 1st half form. With Altuve locked into 2B until he retires, I...
