Yeah, I was also thinking it would end up getting called The Big Radish or something like that

Toronto non-tendered Romano. Astros should be talking to them about Pressly non-stop.

The non-tenders of Romano and Finnegan don’t bode well for Houston being able to dump all of Pressly’s contract.  Doesn’t really make sense for Houston to trade him if they have to eat money, since the point of trading him is to clear payroll.

I don't see how they're going to convince someone to take on his contract without eating some of it.

Rumor that Bregman's offer from the Astros is 6/156.

Seems fair.  $150M for the second half of the next six seasons and $6M for the first halves.

So 5 mil more than Chapmans

Thats what I was texted this morning. From someone who would know. 

womp womp

"Left-handed starter Yusei Kikuchi is in agreement with the Los Angeles Angels on a three-year, $63 million contract, sources confirmed to ESPN on Monday.

Kikuchi, 33, had a great second half to his season last year after being traded from the Toronto Blue Jays to the Houston Astros, compiling a 2.70 ERA in 10 starts."

I guess he didn't like making the playoffs.

wanted Kikuchi. Are we saving for Breggy and King Tuck instead of SP?

21 is a little steep for Coochie, no?

For the version we got for ten starts? No. For who he’s been the rest of his career? Absolutely.

I think they'll both sign somewhere else.

We should trade Tucker.

Watch Crane turn around and give it to Verlander.  

He hates money if he does that unless it's tied to performance clauses that include things like 15 wins or win the cy young.

or better yet, staying healthy. But yes, his contract needs to have a shit ton of incentives.

The Yankees really need a 3b, since Jazz is not the answer there...  If Soto goes to the Mets, I could see it happening. I would hate to see it though, I want him to retire an Astro.

Yeah well i want a billion

Not that anybody should be counting on it, but a Charlie Morton-esque late career stint of health and performance is not outside the realm of possibility for McCullers.  He’s only 31.

A big problem is I think he's lost quite a bit of velocity if by some miracle he does manage to stay healthy.  He's not gonna stay healthy though, so it's moot.

Morton didn't discover his velocity until age 33, as he was plagued by injuries most of his 20s as well. I am not saying it will happen with Lance, but if it did it would be awesome. Lance is a great dude, wish he had been more healthy.

Velocity? He don’t need no stinking velocity
