Tampa is in Houston. Think Beckham gets to KC for game time?

We are at home.

Houston did nothing but Liriano. I thought they would add another arm.

Darvish, is a free agent after this year. IF the Rangers offered him a Q/O and he signed elsewhere, the best the Rangers could get would be a pick in the 70-80 range. The three players may not be great, however they are better than a pick in that range.

I know a lot of Rangers fans who are pretty confident that Texas is going to re-sign Darvish, anyway.

What year do you think Myers will be voted into the HOF? Around 2037?

That's pretty early.   He'd just be 39.   That would mean he retired at 34.   Not many guys who retire at 34 have had HOF careers.   Koufax.   And....?

True. Might be later. I'll be dead, anyway.

I'd have traded Britton for a PTBNL to any team that would also have taken Trumbo and Davis.

Might this be the second longest thread behind Texeria?

This board has it's Cal's streak and it ain't the one of the Tex threads.

6 I believe if I counted right from MLB top 100

Jimenez 7

Rutherford 45

Cease 67

Calhoun 69

Fowler 77

Candeleria 92

1 pitcher and 5 position players.

Houston bullpen is bringing a tanker full of gasoline to the pitching mound so far today.  1 inning pitched 4 runs and bases loaded.  LOL.

 

[Deadwood Fan]

Jon Morosi is reporting that the Astros weren't willing to include either Kyle Tucker or Derek Fisher in a trade for either Britton or Brad Hand.

I really hope their bullpen does a Detroit and melts down in the playoffs,

I hope Tucker or Fisher isn't the reason we didn't make a deal with Houston.

 

Whitley, Moran, Armenteros and Alcala would have been a good deal.

 

However, I don't think that was it.....Roch reported early that the Orioles were buyer. In the end that is exactly what they did picking up a SP, and Beckham.

We have to be the worst run organization in baseball as to knowing when to holdem and foldem.
