He can go be A-Rod level talented in Cincy and I won’t give two shits if we get Castillo in return.
I like Castillo. I really do. He took a MASSIVE jump this season. If the numbers are sustainable, he is an ace. I just have an inherent bias for position player talent vs. pitching talent. Everyday impact vs once every five days.

Trade Carlos. Bring Rendon home. Profit.

  • Here's the thing that makes me absolutely livid about this... Cheating happens all the time in baseball. At all levels. All levels. The MLB itself cheats the game by juicing the ball. Players juiced t

    It's not the end, I agree. The Astros are still sacks of giant shit, though.  Shame on them.

    Very sad to see that the Astros are basically dipshit cheaters from the top down. Hey, at least the Black Sox are happy that someone else is wearing their crown of infamy.

Who wins in a race between the Easter Bunny,  Santa Claus, and a healthy Carlos Correa? 

No one,  because all 3 don't exist

We have a strong lineup already. We need another starter and a top of the rotation guy would be incredible 

We have lawyers trying to sort out some sort of legal issue with Castillo in the Dominican. That’s the hold up.

I wonder which Baltimore reliever we'd want.

I remember one of their relievers shut us the fuck down. Don't remember who.

If it’s really Castillo, that’s a trade you make. Sorry but Carlos is never going to be healthy - 4 years of control of a budding superstar is definitely worth the risk of trading him.

Definitely not Bud Norris

Miguel Castro?

Yuli could also move to third

Nothing like a job relocation to the rust belt to test a new marriage

But guessing Daniella wasn’t astute enough to slip in:

“in sickness and in health...but damned sure not cincinnati in late March”

 

Got kind of tired packing and unpacking
Town to town and up and down the dial
Maybe you and me were never meant to be
But baby think of me once in awhile

Gotta be stevie Wilkerson

Bryant is also supposedly available...just sayin'.

If Correa is moved and we get a starting pitcher with 4 more years of team control, perhaps Whitley is expendable if he nets Bryant...

Castillo would be a hell of a pick up

yuli played a lot of third base in the Cuban system

I’m not even mad. It’s like they ate a wheel of cheese

Zero chance the Astros would have entertained that offer. Slim chance that Cole's arm holds up for 9 years.

This gonna be interesting. No Strom and a lot of pressure. This could be a massive failure. Just doesn't look like a good match. 

Hope the fuckers are killed by this contract over the next 10 years. Hope they get Pujosed.

Cole is gonna have to cut his hair and shave his beard, right? Maybe that is where his power comes from.

After Strasburg set the floor, Boras had the 3 finalists on a conference call and auctioneering years.

Daniella is going to love Skyline Chili. I laughed when I saw the number of years and contract for Cole. Will miss him. Only Astros pitchers that I enjoyed watching as much as him was Nolie and Big Unit

Gurriel is a natural 3rd baseman and Bregs is a natural shortstop. Plug a spare at 1st and let Strom work his magic with Castillo. What is there not to like?

No no no, you keep Yuli at 1B after you sign Rendon (in addition to Springer, hopefully) with the Correa savings.

9 years.  Holy shit, does Strom get a cut from that?

 

I guess the Astros are as sick of Correa as we are.

I liked Correa from the time we drafted him, but even I had enough of his shit by the time he couldn’t man up for Opening Day last year. 
 

He may wind up being a HOFer and good for him, be he got to go.

Holy shit, that's a fuck ton of money. Good luck with that contract, worked well with Stanton

That's the Yankees we know and hate.  The last 3 or 4 years of that deal are gonna be fun for them.

Like the Greinke acquisition is gonna be fun for us.

That's a good signing for the Yankees.  There's some risk but they can afford it.

Not good at math, are you?

* future savings 

And yes, smartass - I’m aware that the long-term contracts of Rendon + Springer > Correa.

Hey Portapotty Boy - what’s the latest?
