Fitts 4 scoreless is an absolute win IMO. -
Will be interesting to see Fitts against a tougher lineup.
-
In relation to the CBT, which is JH’s limit, it went down.
-
It's going to be a good Friday the 13th when they put Bobby Dalbec at SS.
-
Who started the rumor or where is it coming from?
-
Verdugo cost the Yankees 8.7M this year. That's where O'Neilll was paid from.
-
They would have been better off keeping Sale, expecting a partial season and signing Lorenzen and expecting him to pitch about 120 innings. Vaughn Grissom not being the starting 2B going forward is a real kick in the nuts for this deal.
-
From 21 to 22, the CBT went up 20M.
-
I just don't buy the rumor that he'll be that far below the CBT. 20M? Maybe. 40? I doubt it!
-
At 19M? I can think of a few cheaper ways.
-
This guy might be a DUDE next year.
-
If that's the case, they wouldn't have signed Giolito.
-
Moving Abreu to 1b wastes his defense. Right now, he's a platoon bat. You'd almost turn him into Enmanuel Valdez.
-
Casas is still preARB next year. His first year is '26.
-
What's the point in being that far under the budget? It doesn't make sense to me if they are trying to sell us on next year. If they went 20M under and signed a few one year deals, it'd make more sense.
-
My fiscal year ends on 9/30 and it is budget season. I'll leave it for the moon man.
-
He had an 802 OPS from 5/19/22 - end of season. Aside from that, he's been pretty bad.
-
Just for reference:
-
LOL random?
-
They had a great pitching staff that year. Valdez, Javier and Verlander all had ERA's below 3. He was Javier's personal caddie and Javier was on a great run. He would also come in and be a relief catcher around the 7th inning and their pen included Pressly, Montero, Abreu and Stanek who all had great seasons. HOU was 2nd in reliever fWAR in '22.
-
I just need some garlic and a wooden stake. I'll take care of all of this.🧛♂️
-
Nobody was asking for Rafaela in a trade in 2019, but I agree with the overall point.
-
The Astros would have won the WS even if they didn't trade for Vazquez. After Dusty was handed him, he pushed back and didn't want to use him that much. Valdez has been ok, but really is just a platoon DH. Not that much value there. Abreu has been fantastic and should provide loads of value for the next 5 years. He's the reason this trade is a slam dunk. Vaz was on an expiring deal and the Sox weren't going to re-sign him. It's what they should have done with JD, Eovaldi and others.
-
I think they can still sign guys, but I wouldn't go crazy with one year contract guys. If there is a good long term contract guy that will help you in 26, 27 and 28 it'd be dumb to let that guy go by just because you may not be good enough in 25. That doesn't mean that's the road JH goes down though. 😩
-
Even if they aren't kicking the can down the road, I don't think the players will be quite ready. All the pieces won't be in place yet IMO. They still need to deal with roadblocks like Story and Yoshida as well and that will take longer than one offseason.
