Here's the thing that makes me absolutely livid about this... Cheating happens all the time in baseball. At all levels. All levels. The MLB itself cheats the game by juicing the ball. Players juiced t

It's not the end, I agree. The Astros are still sacks of giant shit, though.  Shame on them.

Very sad to see that the Astros are basically dipshit cheaters from the top down. Hey, at least the Black Sox are happy that someone else is wearing their crown of infamy.

Mookie’s a free agent after this coming season too. I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for the Astros to sign Betts for what is likely to be around $325-350 million (for the same reason that they aren’t going to seriously pursue Cole).

Yeah, it wasn’t to be taken seriously.

To wit, the Yankees have reportedly offered Cole a seven-year deal worth $245 million, per Bob Klapisch of the New York Times. (Amusingly, our Mike Axisa predicted Cole would receive that exact offer from the Yankees early on Sunday.)

I’d rather Cole go to the Yankees than the Angels. We play the MFY 6 times a year vs 19 regular season games vs the Angels, Goal #1 is to make the playoffs. While the Angels have a little ways to go to be a perennial contender, getting Cole, along with Trout and Ohtani, would be a good start. 

Also, this

The Astros are one of the clubs “monitoring” free-agent right-hander Josh Lindblom’s market, Jon Morosi of MLB Network tweets. The 32-year-old struggled in the majors before heading to Korea and thriving there over the past couple seasons. Now that he’s on the open market, MLBTR predicted at the start of the offseason that the Astros would sign Lindblom, a spin rate darling. That’s something the Astros seem to value. Plus, with Gerrit Cole and Wade Miley currently unsigned, the Astros have openings in their starting staff.

There must be a lot more in that package than Correa and Reddick. You have to include Reddick to be able to take on additional salary but he's a big net minus in any trade. Probably at least one of our pitchers who bounced between AAA and Houston last year.

I'd be fine with that trade for prospects and then sign Rendon. We'll find a pitcher somewhere else.

I doubt it. A healthy Correa is an MVP candidate. If the Mets want Correa, then they take Reddicks contract also. Possibly Correa could eventually sign there.

Also says reddick salary could be reallocated to Donaldson. And Mets was speculation, he just knows high tier arm

Don't see this. This is the exact opposite of the Astros FO think tank. Not going to give a an aging player a big 4 year contract.

My source has never been wrong. If he misses I’ll let you know but it sounds legit as fuck

Man I think I like it but I don't know how to feel. A healthy Correa is A-Rod level talent. But he hasn't been healthy so far.

He can go be A-Rod level talented in Cincy and I won’t give two shits if we get Castillo in return.
