With all of our woes, I can't help but wonder where we would be if we still had Yuli at 1B. Defensively, offensively & clubhouse leadership.

It's not about the AAV for them, it's the length. Crane doesn't want to give guys 8+ years.

$95 million coming off the books before arbitration numbers come in. We can afford the $35-40M AAV for Tucker
If he keeps up what he has started with this season, somebody is going to pay him $50M/yr for 8+.

It'll be higher because Framber will make more next year and he's not including Tucker himself.

However, it doesn't consider arbitration raises for others and free agents signed the 24/25 offseason.

I've been saying that for a while. We can afford a few of Altuve, Bregman, Tucker, & Framber. We already got Jose so now it's who we pair with him. Tucker seems like the very obvious choice.

The guy who's out of the league? Really?

I'd suggest a guy out of the league is better than what we've started the last two games.

Heck, the 12-year old on a LL all-star team might be better.

Edit for spelling

Question- do we have confirmation that the front office sees Joey as a legitimate 1B or not? If not, ok. If yes, why in the absolute **** is he not playing there every damn night while in Sugar Land?
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

I asked this before he got called up the first time. 2015 said he was getting plenty of reps there in practice but then nada for the big league club. It's kind of funny that teams generally put their worst fielder there but we can't seem to train anyone to play it.

To be fair we have our worst fielder there

Makes you wonder how bad Joey must be. Does he try to play with no glove?

Just now tuning in and seeing the lineup, if we win tonight I'm a full believer in the Abreu effect

Need to bring Brantley out of retirement just to sit on the bench. These guys just don't look like they give a damn.

Can we have a robo challenge system now please? Crap is getting ridiculous. We don't need assistance losing.

Kirby may go CG. Breggy made decent contact but otherwise we look very disinterested.
