Maybe it's his vinegar strokes and he's cracked a rib, too

Looks to me like he's getting a rib broken while getting a massage from his brothers masseuse.

I met the kid earlier this year. I didn't get the feeling that he would be leaving school anytime soon. But i could be wrong.

I feel like the Stros just draft current players brothers just for shlts and giggles.

They did it with Bregman's brother I think last year, did it with Stubb's brother this year in the 10th round, and now Correa's brother a couple times.

And Yuli theoretically to get his brother who we thought was going to be better. That one worked out though.

Tubby in the 5 spot. Well that means we have the lineup really 6-9 then 1-4.

Seriously though, other than the chunky monkey every single person in that lineup has an extra gear at least and a nitrous boost at best. Even Stubbs.

I didn't include him because that wasn't for shlts and giggles.

You know, I don't blame Keuchel for not taking the offer the Astros made a couple of years back. I mean given what pitchers were being paid with his pedigree, he had to feel he was going to get a substantial payday, unfortunately the market completely changed and so did his chance to make really good money.

I don't feel sorry for Keuchel one bit. He did this to himself. Well he had a little help from his greedy dumbass agent, but most of this mess he's in is all on him.

3 years, $43M for Kimbrel

So he's getting roughly $14MM/yr. I wonder if the amount was prorated for this year.

Anyone know what his QO was for Boston?

He's 7 hitless ABs away from the Mendoza line...so won't happen tonight.

I don't feel sorry for him, but back 2 or 3 years ago, the market for pitchers and FA's as a whole are dramatically different than now. I understand his perspective at the time, I don't understand it now given the market.

Regardless he's making 43M to play 2.5ish years, which is 17Mish per year. His "market value" was $16.5M per over 5 years based on similar players, so a much shorter deal but not too far off the mark.

Crychel's market value is listed at $22M per.

Doesn't he need to make 60 million over the remainder of this season and next season to equal the amount of money he would have made if he had accepted the Astros offer of 5/90?

5/90 seems much closer to what hes actually worth. If he gets 110+ out of anyone I'll be shocked.

He may get a 2.5 year deal worth 50 to 60, but I think a team might be overpaying at 60.
