Having said that, I hope they both hit 2 homers each, today.

Damn. I was not aware of that. He's gunna ask for Montero money.
Yea. We let W Harris and Graveman walk under similar circumstances and signed/developed other guys to replace them. Not sure why Montero was the guy we decided "yea, he's the one who's worth 3/$30+ million to keep".
Bullpen guys having career years in contract years is always a little suspicious for me. Maton and Neris have been great this year in their contract years. Shocking.

Because we were GM-less when that deal was made.

Fyi, for any of us who use Twitter to follow sports, Elon is taking a sledgehammer to the ability to use Twitter without paying. Might be time to find another medium

What human being would be impacted by those limits

Pretty sure Maton isn't a free agent until end of 24 season
Astros will skip Framber Valdez this turn in rotation after he sprained his ankle against the Mets. It affected him in St. Louis. They hope he can make one more start before All-Star break.

Dusty Baker said he tried to lure Aroldis Chapman to the Astros in the off-season. Baker had Chapman as a rookie in Cincinnati; Chapman was traded to the a Rangers.

“I wish I had him,” he said.
As of now, Dusty Baker said Cristian Javier will start on Monday against the Rangers. He said Javier is not dealing with anything health-wise.

Bielak threw on the 25th. I could see Framber to the IL and a call up.
Brandon Bielak is scheduled to start tonight for Triple-A Sugar Land, but I don't think he's been optioned long enough to be called up without having to place someone on the IL. Spenser Watkins pitched yesterday in Sugar Land. Spencer Arrighetti pitched on Wednesday.

Interesting about the option timing. If framber goes on the IL, then he's out until after the all star break

I love Hicks. I wonder what he would cost in a trade. If I had to guess, we would be his number 1 preference when he becomes a free agent in the off-season.
