  1. Heyman reporting Brantley and Astros close on a deal
  2. That sucking sound is audible everywhere. May as well go with Lee.
  3. Narvaez to Mets
  4. Class 2A goes through Abilene area. Albany and Hawley only 40 miles apart.
  5. I think it’s possible for those “wishcasting” to recognize and acknowledge the abhorrent nature of what is alleged to have happened and at the same time hope for some way for it not to be true. It’s basically human nature to not want to accept the bad things that happen for lots of reasons and not just because of our sports interest in this case. Doesn’t make one bad or excusing of the crime. We will have to face the cold facts soon enough.
  6. Natty is aggy way of life
  7. Yep. That’s what I meant about rental going into FA. Every player is potentially available. That’s what pissed me off about Click last year. He said no OF was available but with pitching to offer I promise you someone was available. But depending on how teams play, who knows who will play themselves into availability.
  8. Yep Contreras was actually a long play but I’m not upset we passed. Bigger bases, two throws may make defensive catchers even more valuable. Sign Vazquez. And sell Conforto on a two year deal with opt out after one to throw up big stats and win a World Series. Bat 7th, knock in 80+. Profit. Only OF rental available next July will be Ian Happ. If you get him.
  9. And also the biggest question mark
  10. Was just looking at available free agents and looked at Joey Gallo. Weirdest career. 2 time All Star, 2 Gold Gloves and a career batting average of .199. What do you do with that?
  11. I like it. Chas would probably jump all over it. I know everyone wants Yuli for a backup 1B/Util/DH guy but I know we can get someone with a better bat and more versatility. But I won’t moan if that’s the way we go. As it stands the only 1B we have is Abreu and it will bring peace and harmony to the masses.
  12. Sign Vazquez. 6 man rotation, 3 for Maldy, 3 for Vazquez. Profit. What I’d really like is a LF/1B/DH type to play left, backup Abreu and DH the times Yordan has to play left. I will never agree that it’s in the best interests of the Astros to have Yordan in the outfield 100-120 games
  13. Not addressing the outfield and hoping Brantley comes back healthy would be front office malpractice. In the list of priorities it was always 1B, OF, C to me. I’ll be happy just resigning Vazquez.
  14. Right. But between Houston, Texas, Seattle and Tampa Bay he played roughly 100+ games in tax free states with Houston. I think the Marlins are the only team in the National league without state tax. And Cali with 3 teams is at 13% and DC at 10% are even higher than NY 8.8% rate. I just generally used the NY figure for conversation purposes. Shits and giggles. But figuring real numbers out is way more than I want to know or need to know lol
