Boras will collect commission on Maldonado's deal.


Boras is a real scumbag. Managed to screw machete and his new agent over at the same time. Anyone that signs on with him deserves exactly what they get. (lookin' at you, Dallas)

Boras has something up his a** when it comes to the Astros. Has since Beltran. Now it cost a client big, hope there is a way Machete can make him pay somehow

Interesting read on an up and coming starting pitching prospect. Seems like he is getting looks by other organizations in trade talks.


More good reports on Bielak

Sounds like Ted will be in Round Rock to start the year. Guess that was easy to assume based on his lack of ABs in ST

How is ST with no real pressure of making the team from the start mentally tough on him?

Can we not count Tucker as a bust after 19 spring training at bats

It's a natural reaction to declaring him the greatest of all time after 19 minor season at bats.

I am not saddling you with that declaration just pointing out why Tucker becomes so polarizing.

I think the general point is that, as seen last year, Tucker still has some maturing to do. Not a knock- he's still a pup.

Who declared him the greatest of all time?

Jose Altuve (side) won't return to Grapefruit League action until at least next weekend.

He'll be held out of baseball activities altogether as the Astros try to get his left side soreness to subside. Altuve has had to be scratched from the lineup a couple times over the last few days, but the team remains confident the injury isn't a long-term thing. "We feel very good about the fact this is a minor issue," manager A.J. Hinch said. "We are going to sit him for a few days and do no activity just to make sure. He's doing fine, his spirits are up, he's Jose Altuve. He'll recover fine."

Saying he's not making the team isn't calling him a bust.

True.

He's not making the opening day roster because of our OF depth chart, options situation and in the MLB rules encouraging the club to keep him down a little longer.

I am glad people have stopped calling him Ted & I think the hype is a little much vs the reality of what he is, but don't forget he just turned 22 a couple of months ago. Springer at that same age was 300ish minor league games away from making his mlb debut @ 24.

Another bad outing for Valdez. This should officially knock him out of that 5th rotation spot.

Sign keuchel. 2 years. Option for 3 and lots of incentives. He needs to get over it. Boras needs to admit he goofed (that's the hard part) and lunhow should pay him as a solid #2 even though he's going to be a #3 here.

Has Keuchel officially passed on our offer? I know I saw a link to barstool sports earlier in the thread that he may have, but I've not seen that corroborated anywhere else.

So basically overpay him? At this point in time he will be no one's #2 or he would have already been signed for that kind of money. If he is going to be #3 then pay him as so.
