Gilbert is one of the prospects 

Cool. Now I can go back to thinking he's the biggest douche in the game. 

Well we better pay Tuck now

Fact: The Astros have won a World Series every year they’ve traded for Justin Verlander.
 

Here’s to keeping that streak alive. 

Amazed we haven’t made a deal for a bat when this offense is the main reason we’re not in first by 5-6 games.

Extend chas 

I'd settle for playing Chas at this point.

yordan and altuve missing 125 games might have something to do with this.

I might be going out on a limb here, but we’re going to get a damn fired up JV. A man on a mission, a man on fire

Bad day for Corpus Christi Hooks fans.  Pretty good day for the Astros though.

Not that I wouldn't like to see a lefty bat added, but:

We haven't had Yordan and Altuve in a lineup together for like 70% of our games.

Dusty refuses to routinely use our far superior hitting catcher.

You kinda get the feeling he wants to be in Houston.

so he's signed thru 2024, that's good.  his 2025 vests if he pitches 140+ innings in 2024.  that's not nothing.  he will be really close to that number this year.

With the apparent loss of Loperfido and Gilbert, Tucker's asking price just went through the roof. Astros have to pay it. We still need another bullpen arm and a bat, but good trade deadline so far for the Astros.

FUCK!  Gilbert and Clifford.  Mets better be eating a shitload of JV's salary.  Still, it's a significant move so I don't have a huge problem giving up good prospects but Clifford is a really underrated one.

Maybe we could trade for a catcher who is good defensively with an OPS of 800 to replace our 545 OPS catcher who sucks defensively now?

Or trade for an every day CF with a 900 OPS we could just pencil in the lineup every day?

You forget we're also trading Meyers and Montero for Soto. 

Mets better be paying a bunch of salary (like more than 50%) or this is a really tough pill to swallow when we could have just signed him. I bet they are. 
I had Gilbert like the 8th best trade chip in the organization and loperfido in the mid 20’s. 

That was too much. I didn’t want to give up Clifford. Let’s go win some damn pennants then!

Mets want both Drew Gilbert and Hunter Brown.  Astros have offered Gilbert (and maybe another lesser prospect).  I would be ok with Houston trading Gilbert if the Mets eat quite a bit of JV's salary, but giving up both Brown and Gilbert is a non-starter for just Verlander.

Clifford?  Fuuuuuuuuuuuck man. This is our top 2 prospects. Like- Mets better be paying all the money. Ouch.

Not only his entire salary, but send us money to trade for another bat. Holy fuck.

They have to be paying a big chunk.  There's no reason for the Astros to give up both Gilbert and Clifford otherwise.

Maaaaaan that is steep. I hope to completely forget the pain, but the Mets better be eating a bunch of salary so we extend Tucker. That fucking hurts. 

Hunter Brown and Justin Verlander in the same squad.   That’s pretty damned cool.

 

GLF!!!

I can’t believe people are so quick with the JV photoshops in Astro gear!

With Urquidy coming back who goes to the pen, unless we're going to go with a 6 man rotation?

The window is the window. I want to win another now.
