Huge shot of energy to the team and the fanbase.  That's been missing all year.

and health, which early on in his career didn't seem applicable to Show-rea.

I'm glad he's come back.   Dude stood up for the franchise in the lowest moment(s.)  Auto-pass for life, IMHO.

Can't wait to see cobra stikes on put-outs again.  Clutch hitting is welcome as well.

Astros also getting Jesus Sanchez from Marlins. There's your lefty OF.

Good fit. He has more in the tank there for sure that the marlins didnt capitalize on. Also I am happy that Gusto is gone

I want to like this…. But I can’t. 
Stop reading here if you don’t want the Debbie downer post….

 

 

 

The clubhouse and fanbase definitely needs a spark.
I just don’t see how he’s going to transform into the guy we all fell in love with.
When the more likely scenario is his 2025 stats are who he is and Father Time is catching up to him, a guy who could never stay healthy anyway and you put him in this organization and it’s medical staff and you’re much more likely to see him on the IL in Sept and Oct than you are hitting bombs and tapping his wrist

All these trades could mean they are really expecting the calvary to return this month or in Sept. 

OTOH, maybe Paredes & Yordan don't return this year, but they felt they had to put out an effort for this squad.

Also, SEA's moves were nothing to sneeze over.

Today the #Astros reportedly acquired OF Jesus Sanchez ($12.6M surplus trade value) from the Marlins in exchange for RHP Ryan Gusto ($6.3M), SS Chase Jaworsky ($1.4M) and OF Esmil Valencia ($0.9M) ($8.6M total).

The deal is accepted by our model as a major underpay by Houston.

Huh

It will either work or it won't.  And the outcome will either end Dana's time in Houston or make him look like a genius. 

Wow, you really think it has that much riding on it? We haven't even really seen any of his draft picks really develop into MLB talent for that being his calling card. Not that he's really been in the role long enough.

I have 1 official MLB jersey (not normally a “Jersey” guy). It says Correa. If all goes well it will be making a return appearance soon.

Same here. I have to find it in the closet first then I think I’m supposed to get it tailored since I’ve lost about 35 lbs since its last appearance.

The Urias deal feels like a deal Dana wanted to make, this deal feels like one that Dana was told to make by Crane.
