August 2, 20223 yr Also Crane is super high on Jake Meyers. Tip of the hat to Padres front office. They will do anything to bring a World Series to San Diego Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

Gotta figure out what we are doing with CF So call your shot....who do you legitimately want for CF (don't be the Trout, Springer, Willie Mays guy) At this point go get Reynolds. We haven't spent much on the pieces we added so spend and go get the best guy out there that is probably available.
August 2, 20223 yr Reddit baseball is saying Hosmer has to agree to be shipped to Nats for this deal to go down. Almost all the pieces involved in this trade are Boras clients, Soto/Bell/Hosmer/Gore/Wood.

He’s got a few more years of control, he’s in his prime, etc. Because of that, he’s gonna cost you. But I think it’s mostly worth it. He’d be your CF for the next 3+ years.

No one else realistically proposed is an upgrade.

I think Reynolds would cost more than we are willing to pay. After those two, there isn't much that seems like a clear upgrade over what we have. I read an article that mentioned Garcia from the Rangers. If the price was right, I'd probably go with that.

But since he's now a bit long in the tooth, give me Reynolds. I'm somewhat surprised the Yankees haven't already grabbed him.

Although, I don't know how good he is vs other teams.

He's one of those guys I just assume hits .350 with 45 HRs because of how he crushes us, but, it turns out he's just slightly above average.

August 2, 20223 yr Hosmer has not agreed to the trade, he has 10 team trade protection and WAS is one of those teams. Soto is still going to San Diego, but the rest of the deal may change.

August 2, 20223 yr Guessing roster moves as things stand now. Mancini for Jones or JJ ( other one gone when Bregs returns), Vazquez for Lee, Smith for Odorizzi. Will need to make a 40 man move. Unfortunately, I think that might involve moving Brantley to the 60 day IL. He’d be eligible to return at the end of this month.

August 2, 20223 yr Is Castro already on the 60-day?Yeah late last night i thought we had already done that, but I looked again and seems as though we have not
August 2, 20223 yr Meyers getting hurt sure did fuck shit up. Price might be prohibitive but Reynolds would be my target, followed by Mullins then Happ. I’d be willing to part with a lot for Reynolds; he’s on par with Springer. I’d also check on Yaz and Varsho. Michael Taylor is not an upgrade over Meyers/McCormick, and Laureano is an asshole.

Move to 60 day IL, DFA or retirement would take care of the 40 man move. Edited August 2, 20223 yr by TonyTexas
August 2, 20223 yr Astros.com shows 40-man at 44 players with 3 on the 60-day IL so someone is coming off it today via trade or one/both of Castro and Brantley will be shifted to the 60-day. Another move will also need to be made to make room for LMJ but Goodrum's spot is an easy call.

August 2, 20223 yr Not sure I was was ever convinced we had a serious shot at Soto, even if getting Bell seems possible. Glad they are not in the AL if Houston didn't reel them in. I'm getting to see Dodgers at Padres in September. That game just got a little more interesting!

August 2, 20223 yr They don't have anyone ranked that highly at the start of 2022 other than Pena. He would match Abrams, but no other position players do. Would have bad to include Brown and another highly ranked player. Edited August 2, 20223 yr by kevwun

August 2, 20223 yr Who would be the Astro equivalent players for the soto/bell trade ?Our top 10 prospects lol
August 2, 20223 yr That should never be up for debate. Tucker is great in right field, but doesn't have the range to play center especially in Minute Maid.
