STS was the real hero. I just quoted it.
( I think that's what his name was)

STS was absolutely the MVP of the World Series thread! It all started after that post! You're welcome, Astros

What would it take for Verlander to go in as an Astro?
This is from an article about Jim Thome going to the hall

The cap decision is made by the Hall of Fame's senior staff and research team. "They'll look at a player's career numbers and look at the impact, and quite honestly, it's usually a no-brainer," Idelson told ESPN. "Then we have a conversation with the player, because we wouldn't do something unilaterally."

Same article noted that Gary Carter wanted to go in as a Met, but was overruled and went in as an Expo.

if Nolan Ryan went in as a Ranger, which is BS - should have gone in as an Angel because of his dominant years in the 70s, then Verlander should go in as an Astro.
I believe the process has changed since Nolan got in (possibly even because of him).

Pretty sure the process changed because Wade Boggs went in as a TB Ray. His blatant whoring himself out was the straw that broke the camels back.

I was smart and took my ban early in the season, although it nearly torpedoed the King Donkey thread.

He's in with Red Sox Hat. Rumors were rays tried to pay him to go in with their hat

Also rumored Carla Maria Victoria Angelina Teresa Apollonia Lozupone Tortelli LeBec still has his pants

It's weird to me the players don't get to choose. They could let them choose and then have a final override if it's an off the wall choice, like Boggs.

Gallo to Houston? He'l doesn't seem to fit their model at all. Huge K guy.

He's one I wonder how much the shift being gone will impact.

I think the shift ban will really help him. Assuming he can actually put the ball in play.

There is no way Gallo goes to Houston, right?

I mean, maybe the analytics group can plot and project his numbers if the shift was removed and it's worth it? No freaking way I see him fitting…

Gallo has no chance to come to Houston

It's a random twitter account guessing without thought.

If Kershaw really goes to the Rangers, I guess that settles one thing. The Astros will have to bring back Yuli.

Any Uncle Mike news? DH was a sore spot in the postseason.

I'll keep my Gallo bet in play if he signs here as a free agent.

I heard someone on the radio say that he had stated he probably wouldn't be ready to play the field by the start of the season. Wherever he ends up, he's likely relegated to DH.

Need to ensure no major pitching staff losses in free agency. In fact would rather overspend to keep it intact, especially the bullpen.

Gallo is 29. Maybe someone out there is willing to give him long term money, bet on him benefitting from limiting the shift.

Still, could see a short term deal for him to resurrect his career…

That 100% depends on Judge. If he stays in NY I don't see NY going for two contracts at that level.
