That's the case with every person that has years bought out. Player takes more money now yearly rather than more overall by having to wait.

We all know the team that wins the WS gets to wear a special gold trimmed Uni on the first home date the next year. Out 2018 was home white trimmed in gold.

Do we do the Framber special (AKA Sunday Blue) of the home alternate orange?

I'm voting for the Blue. Blue and gold look way better than orange and gold.


We need to upgrade our whites. **** isn't clean and classy, it's just boring and off centered.

Right, but buying out Arbitration years for <20 M doesn't seem great. Tucker would only need to get offered something like 3/75 after arbitration to match a 6/115 deal. When in reality, assuming no major downfalls, will get 6/150 (Springer deal) or better. So if you want to get 3 more years of prime, you have to pay for those prime years.

May not be a popular opinion but I would let verlander walk and use the money to sign Rizzo. Nothing against JV or what he has meant to Houston, but we have 6 good young pitchers and he will cost a ton. Not sure he can hold up at 40

I posted something similar several weeks back. I think people would be against it if he was better in the postseason.

Astros wall might have to spill over onto the A&M wall

I can't even get one.

Come on man….


I'm going to wait til they release the posters. The "Again" cover will look great next to my framed 2017 "Champs" poster.


True True.

I have those 2017 posters in storage and waiting to be framed. Let's see how creative I can't get with the new additions.

The good thing about Verlander is you can probably sign him on 1 year deals which gives us a lot of flexibility - especially with the structure of a lot of our contracts expiring in '24.

I was living in the Chicago area suburbs in 2005.

Not a fun time.

I'd rather go 2yr/$40M for Rizzo than pay twice that for JV.

Rizzo would be a great option if it's not a crippling deal. I have a feeling it'll take a big one.

2 year deal makes sense. 4 year one would give me pause.

Rizzo would be a nice pickup especially if Yuli walks.

I would do a 2 year deal. Maybe 3

I couldn't keep up throughout the game and right after

Do we know if anyone has ever hit a HR up over the batters eye where Yordan's landed?

I wanna say I remember Bagwell hitting one up there but not sure.

I think Yordan has it it up there before
