RGBIII

I would imagine Pressly will be traded once the FA closer market gets sorted. That will open a significant chunk of change. Going into opening day with that outfield is untenable

Santander is the next plan. 2 more OF, a RP and a back end starter

On the opposite end of the spectrum, I like using the term "Big Dog" as a term of endearment for strangers or people whos name I forgot..I think the alignment chart looks something like this

The portal needs to calm down, @Helobious only has 2 hands and a full focus on DTs. I’d say he can start using his mouth but then how would he let people know that he’s Hispanic? We may have to see how dexterous his feet are before all is said and done

Counterpoint to Verdugo…have you ever seen his face? It is immensely punchable and I don’t think I can watch that for 162+

Warm those palms up puta @Helobious

Moore is the Moore replacement. He’s coming back barring something super unforseen

Arenado is still the better defender at third

I would imagine him waving his NTC will have a restructure aspect attached to it. I could see Montero being part of the deal as part of the money offset as well. Hearing his name was surprising to me because of the deferred money as well

If you bitch and complain about Crane spending you either don’t know ball or you have no recollection of Drayton and the early Luhnow years. Crane has too much involvement in baseball ops and needs to listen to the smart folks in the room more instead of the “baseball guys”. But the Astros are consistently carrying a top 5 payroll in baseball. If you told 2013 RGBIII that he would laugh in your face. Letting springer and Correa walk was absolutely the right decision and those contracts will be albatross's in a year or two, if they aren’t already. it sucks watching talent walk out the door, especially ones you have grown fond of but NOT signing these dumb ass contracts is how you stay in contention. “But RGBIII our window is right now”, cool so you want to skull fuck our next 8 years for these next two years? Is that how the business you work in operates? “But RGBIII they need to extend our homegrown players!” Do you not remember extending altuve, Bregman, yordan, McCullers, Javier in recent years? “But RGBIII this trade makes our team worse this year!” Ya that’s how it works, we are slightly worse this year but we are massively better in 2026 and 2027 because Tucker didn’t leave for nothing (again!). “But RGBIII look at what the Yankees and dodgers are doing” cool, we aren’t in those markets and regardless of success we will never be, check back in 5 years and ask me how those contracts have worked out for them. seeing “crane needs to sell the team” comments is the most retarded shit I have ever seen on this website. You either don’t know ball or you have absolutely no inclination on how bad it could get, go ask a Rockies or pirates fan if they would trade owners with us and see their response. Shut the fuck up and see how the offseason plays out or even better, go find another team and see how it works out for you. Putas

The Stros info I get is hit or miss lately but the pivot internally is trying to convince Arenado to waive his NTC and one of Santander or Kepler

I cannot emphasize how well Bonnie fits in Starkville. I wonder if she will be able to hear the cowbells over the helicopter whirring

Save those typing thumbs, we don’t need blisters on them yet

Big. Not lsu big but otherwise we are right there. Rev share $$ probably won’t hit baseball much but the extra scholarship $ will help supplement. Baseball has a chance to be very very good for a long long time

Better chance than most #1s. Doubtful but there is a real chance

I loved that you doubled down on one of the worst takes ive ever read. Kudos!

If FFrenchs last name was fucking Calderon or Martinez you would be slitting your wrists at the mere thought of losing him to Floriday....reminder...

Oh my fucking god…paging @closetojumping

Well as many other posters on this distinguished website will tell you...I am Tom Herman

Are you Michelle Herman? Oh wait, you cant be because Tom would be doing Coke off of your tits if you were

Big time

Hes going to really struggle to find a spot and will need to find someone desperate. ASU has already told him "No thanks"

This is the main reason. I dont know shit about fuck with baseball recruiting but the response I got was "We dont know why he is ranked that high but cannot wait to have him on campus". Anything can happen of course still

Because he is ass
