In all of our trade deadline glory, I completely didn't realize that the rangers didn't even manage to deal off any of their guys for prospects...
Another huge win for the stros.
I'd be in as well.n_touch said:
Easy to personalize, I do all kinds. Each one can be specific to what they want. Doesn't even have to be for this, just needed to justify buying a case.

From a comment I heard somewhere yesterday, prospects come and go. You get to hang a banner forever.Frok said:
I'm happy Luhnow made the move. I think the hardest part of being a GM is debating between future and win now. It's so hard to know which prospects will truly pan out.

Yes, a huge win. They've further relegated themselves into prolonged purgatory which absolutely directly benefits us... for years.

Arizona agreed to send Houston $24 million to offset much of the $74,161,290 Greinke is owed in salary plus $2 million to cover the assignment bonus he gets for being traded. The Diamondbacks pay the Astros $2 million on Nov. 1 for the assignment bonus and pay Houston $3,333,333 on Oct. 15 plus $10,333,333 each on July 1 in 2020 and 2021.
Greinke's $206.5 million, six-year contract includes a $31.5 million salary for this year which has $10,161,290 remaining plus $32 million in each of the next two seasons. His deal defers $10.5 million in 2019 salary and $11 million in each of the next two years, and Houston assumes responsibility for the deferred money being accrued starting Thursday.
