  1. Fox makes little sense, because the Rockets are keeping Van Vleet for the duration of his deal. Ime loves him. The guys that are available that make the most sense for the Rockets would be Williams, Johnson, and Lonzo Ball.
  2. Reds signed Austin Hays today for 1-$5M. I'd reach out to see if we could get Benson on the cheap. Perfect guy to platoon in RF.
  3. Shouldn't we count Dominguez as one of us considering the bomb he hit in MMP.
  4. I am sure the Hero Kanu commitment, especially when he didn't even give them the time of day, will bring some lulz today.
  5. Or you could pocket that money over the next six years and get a longterm deal done with Brown and/or Framber. We have replaced Bregman's offensive production twofold in Paredes and Walker. What we don't need is Altuve or Paredes playing LF, instead go sign a real MLB caliber OF to play LF or at least compete with the OFs already in the org.
  6. You 100% build this team around Amen and Sengun. Green is a trade chip after this season to add another more consistent rotational player.
  7. Spiers, Truby, Berry, Ensberg and Walling as well.
  8. He finished Top-10 5 times and 11th another time. Considering their is only 1 MVP for the entire league, Top 10 is nothing to sneeze at, but if you told me today that Thompson would become a HOF'er I think everyone on this thread would take it. What is interesting is how their 1st two years have been very similar.
  9. He'd likely be in the top 10 but clearly behind Altuve, Biggio, Bagwell, Wagner, and Ryan.
  10. Lulz at Bregman thinking he can strongarm the Astros into a better contract. I would tell Boras that every week that passes, he loses a year and $5M.
  11. Nah, the key to the season so far was Thompson taking over in the starting lineup for an injured Smith. Amen will be the unquestioned team leader next season, and is likely the star we have been after. He can guard 1-5 and has high level basketball IQ on both offense and defense. If he ever gets it to 33% and 80%, he's a MVP level player. Would love to see Thompson, Whitmore, Eason, Smith, and Sengun on the floor together.
  12. Johnson and Williams would make this team very deep.
  13. What a great day for basketball. UT storms back to beat aggy after trailing by 22. UH beats God's gift in 2OT in Lawrence. Rockets hold on to beat sweep the best in the Association, 2-0 in back to back.
  14. This Oregon vs. Minnesota game is horrible for the eyes.
  15. 100% agree. UH and aggy played a scrimmage this season, and UH beat the shit out of them. UH so far this season is 6th in 3P% while aggy is 303rd.
  16. Nah, they rely too much on offensive rebounding and officials burying their whistles to win games, they are UH-lite. They shot 52.2% from BTA and had 18 offensive rebounds and lost the game because they sent us to the line 17 times.
  17. We have too many guards. Pope, Larry, Johnson, and Mark should be the rotation. Weaver should be used in emergency break glass going forward. Then you have more than enough depth at 4-5 with Kaluma, Shedrick, Kent, Onyema. With Pryor and Codie getting 2-3 minutes a half in case of foul trouble. Larry had a 6/0 game with 3 rebounds and the key block on Taylor to give Texas a chance to win it. Weaver just can't deliver that kind of line when you also consider he's horrible at the FT line.
  18. Kent has 1 rebound, but damn if it wasn't key as it was offensive and led to 2 FTs. Really missed Kaluma on the boards. The guards need to help pick up the slack. 8 total rebounds is shitty effort. Larry with 6 AST and 0 TOs.
  19. This win help that out a lot.
  20. Chip Kelly makes a whole lot of sense.
  21. Yep, and a lot of the errors Pena had last year were throwing that likely would not have been with a better defensive 1B. Pena is an elite SS and the Astros would be stupid to move him to anywhere else on the field.
  22. Winker resigned with the Mets 2 or 3 days ago. Verdugo is the most likely addition at this point, with Altuve going to LF.
  23. The offense seems worse than Shaka's, I didn't think it was possible.
  24. Just to be clear, that production company has made $0 in profits since he started it, with the $40M is a low end estimate to how bad he is losing money there and that only considers the past two years when the company was founded in 2020.
  25. Lebron has lost nearly $40M the last two years with his production company, he's contributing jack and shit to NIL.
