If you are mainly interested in 2025 then you could do Bellinger with Paredes and Caissie. Bellinger replaces Tucker, Paredes replaces Bregman snd Caissie gives you the lefty OF to platoon with Meyers / Chas that could become a regular. Maybe you could also sign someone like Christian Walker as well.

One of these years, I hope to come out of an off-season feeling like they boosted the offense

You'll get a depth rental bat at the deadline and you'll like it

Ha-Seong Kim, who is 3 years older and coming off injury, is probably getting a similar contract. Kim is better offensively, maybe not as good defensively, but still very good.
We better get a King's ransom (pun intended) for him thentexasaggie2015 said:
Had a conversation last night and the Tucker rumors are very real. There's a legitimate chance he gets dealt this winter.

Is today the Astros do something? Anything? Is there life out there?

Prepare yourself now
There's just no way the Astros can keep it all in tact. They just can't afford it. They're not the Yankees, Dodgers, or Mets.
Even if they resign Bregman and run it back one more time you're passing up on the value of Tucker and/or Framber for an slim outside chance at another banner. That's not very smart.
Think about it...Bregman's standing off of $156/6 is the largest and longest contract ever given out by Crane. No way in hell he's gonna be able to give Tucker $400/10. Just like no matter how much I want to I can't afford a vacation home on my own tropical island.

I don't think we necessarily need to re-sign all of them but I do think they have to be very smart going forward because you can't lose all 3 and then do nothing to get back to the playoffs in 2025.
That's my worry is we get great prospects in the trades but nothing that'll be significant for this upcoming season.

Maybe if the "+" is Dominguez. You in?topgun23 said:

That is a plenty fair offer. I am not just that high on Schmidt or Gil even though Gil has a ton of control. The Astros need a big-time bat in this deal. The Yankees don't have one to offer most likely. A 3rd team would be required.topgun23 said:
