seager is 30 so they will be paying him 30 million till hes 40. We will see if semien can produce like he did this year consistently, and we all know how fickle eovaldi is. Garcia is only making 700k this year I think so that arb case will be interesting. If you win the title it's worth it, if you don't they could end up like the Rangers of the 2010'stjack16 said:wangus12 said:
Man the Rangers are going to be a major force if they get some bullpen arms. Not very confident even with the players we'll get back next year. Guess a team finally succeeded with spending a **** ton of money.
They did the smart thing of building the farm, growing core pieces… and then signing younger free agents like Semien, Eovaldi and Seager to big deals.
DeGrom was the one move that hasn't really worked out

Eovaldi isn't nearly as sharp tonight as he was the first 2 rounds.
We were their World Series. It wouldn't be shocked if they blew their load early.

Seager was 28 when they signed him, so that's not a terrible deal still. He's still likely going to be good until he's 36 if he stays healthy. So your paying for 6-8 good/great years and 3-4 mediocre/bad years

Can't defend speed.
Would love to see us get more athletic in some areas. We aren't bottom of the barrel in terms of it, but Arizona kinda speed creates added pressure. I'm excited about the Matthews pick for this reason.
Will trade Stars tickets for WS tickets

Astros were a pretty plodding team it seemed. That coupled with just flat terrible base running.

Yeah we need to utilize our guys speed. Pena can fly but we never make opposing defenses sweat on the base paths

Their biggest problem is they have 2 starters and then it falls off fast. If one of Montgomery or Eovaldi falter and they have to go to that pen it's trouble.

That and their bullpen sucks. Their 7-8-9 ain't that good.
I am surprised they went with Eovaldi tonight over Montgomery.
That pitch was high but over the plate. He's so close and leaning over he's got to bail.
Thats where you have to pitch him. Up and in.

The chode standing behind home plate is so Dallas.
What is that idiot behind the plate doing and why are they wearing soccer scarfs?

All their fans are pretty much like that
Well that was a shot.
And. He. Crushed. It!!!
Had a feeling that was coming from Pham. If you can get your hands in on Nate you can hit him.
Generally curious what the shelf life for position coaches is. When do they start losing effectiveness in their coaching, prep and messages to the same players if the roster has little turnover
It feels like we've hit that ceiling with Cintron and Snitker

Pham's response was a verbal shotgun. Just random statements.
Pham would be the perfect Astro in that everyone already hates him. Glad to see him take Eovaldi deep.
I think Pham makes plenty of sense for the Astros in FA
Umps giving Ragners more gifts
Looks like eovaldi still gets that outside call
Doesnt pham beat up his teammates over fantasy football? Or was that someone else?

The Bush's must hold the record for most ceremonial first pitches. It was a helluva moment though given that 9/11 had just happened. That was the only time I rooted for the Yankees.

Fox is just barely getting back from these commercial breaks in time to see the pitch. Happened during the ALCS too. I imagine it's a product of the pitch clock this year.
Can you imagine what this Diamondbacks running game would have done to Maldy?
