Astros: Brown is going “Big,” maybe “Mid” for a starter

1. Let’s go Astros! 907 Astros fan club SW Alaska chapter

2. Going big with what we have to marry holes to fill and we don't have anything to offer we have a bottom farm system

3. I can’t tell you who but I can certainly tell you who not!

4. Meyers has been awesome this year, but the outfield is where the Astros have room to trade. If they trade Dubón, they're smoking crack. Dubón is too good, and I don't understand why they brought back Díaz. He's got like a .200 OPS. He's gonna get DFA'd too.

5. 1 hour later. Swing the god damn bat Jake what's this bunt bullshit with 2 on 2 outs

6. What are we even talking about you? Trading Loeperfido? Nah! So we have a guy in our farming system hitting home runs …. We have chas McCormick who we love but is not producing at all offensively… And we can't figure out that we need to flip the two players and give the guy who's been in the AAA for way too long a chance to be great….. I don't think Dana Brown's got a grasp on what he's supposed to do

7. Solid win over As this afternoon. Mariners currently down 2-1. Pulling for Angels and White Sox.

8. Can’t trade any of our solid players. Don’t have great prospects. It’s going to be hard to make the big trades.

9. Kyle Tucker had his leg amputated and they’re trying to get him adjusted to the prosthetic

10. Rays are 1000% selling they’re smart enough to read the room

11. I wish they would get a bar like paredes it would take allot but club control til 2027 and you can use him in 3rd if Bergman walks

12. That’s one heck of a neck pain that Verlander has.

13. What about a Ryan Mountcastle?

14. What if they just signed a Free Agent pitcher for next to nothing. Just going to throw a name out there like, I don't know, Trevor Bauer? The Cy Young winner who has been proven innocent of the accusation that got him suspended, and pitched at an elite level in Japan and Mexico. Nah, why do that when we can talk about getting some guy with a 5.0 ERA by trading away the future.

15. We talk about prospects but what if we want not 1 but 2 bats and a starting pitcher with years pf control. Well that will be expensive! But auh what if it's not prospects instead, it's a proven MLB star! Kyle Tucker could be that guy. I personally want to build around him but maybe there is someone else out there that can take his place. Someone we know is solid and we know we can keep. I'm not saying go and do that but Tucker is for sure worth a lot right now. White Sox, Rays, Angels, Blue Jays will be all over it.

16. Bone bruises are not a few days. They are weeks to months. It is a deeper bruise on the bone rather than surface level. They like 10 times worse than a bruise
