seems like it is going to be impossible to sign Verlander, Yuli, Brantley and give Tucker the extension. I think you have to sign Verlander with the type of season he had, even with our plethora of amazing young starting arms; Hopefully we can get him for 2/$80. I also think the next biggest need is to lock up Tucker. What do you think he would go for?

If Alvarez got 6/115; do you give Tucker, 6/100?

I don't see how Verlander does anything but remain in Houston. At this point in his career, the most important things for him have to be 300 wins (needs 56) and World Series championships. And the Astros give him the best path to both of those.

Would be really nice if he gave us a bit of a discount but it's always easy for us fans to negotiate that when it's not our money.
He could easily sign with LAD and accomplish those goals while living at home. And LA will need starting pitching.
The tax differences between California and Texas would mean they would have to offer him a lot more than we would just to break even, and the cost of living is much higher there too.
He would save if he didnt need to pay for a Houston home and LA home. I dont see Kate moving to Houston at all. Plus players pay taxes based on where the game is played that day. All of the Astros took a tax hit when they shifted from NL Central to AL West.
most MLB players don't buy homes in towns that play in if they don't live there.....rent or long term airbnb.

The KHOU news casters are so cringey to listen to
Blum is on ABC 13


The ABC folks are just as cringey (other than Blum). I could just picture the one who excitedly said "It takes a DIVERSITY of talent" with some dumb look on her face thinking she made a deep point.
Most of these guys just started watching the Astros last week. Blum is awesome though.

Verlander to the Marlins confirmed
up and coming team,, can he turn it down if they offer him 3/150?
He has 244 wins right now and wants to get to 300. If he plays 3 more seasons, he needs to average 19 wins per year to get there. He can do that easily with the team and bullpen Houston will put behind him. That is not a sure thing with an "up and coming" team. Also don't discount how much he values having Maldy behind the plate catching him.

They have an apartment off Kirby. Nothing that would remotely keep them here. They only spend time here in season.

He's not giving anybody a discount. He's already going to be in the hall. He's going to stack as much coin in his safe as he can.

I hope I'm wrong.

She's a Houston sports icon. It's a less popular sport, but she belongs there way more than 99% of the people we've seen go down the route so far.

How much does the 6 man rotation come into play for JV and other teams? Something that needs to be considered.

It warms my heart so damn much that Big and Bags are so present and get to enjoy this current era DYNASTY! Maybe my favorite thing other than winning it all.
