A. Some of them have. B. They're all players who consistently are very productive offensively. You can be productive offensively without having a high batting average. My point was that none of them consistently hit for the average Altuve has. That's a pointless fact though... |

Why would we sign Nick Casellanos at all,let alone to a 5 year deal. if we are going to sign guys to 5 year deals, there names need to be Correa or Springer. 3. Who do you trade for Josh Bell? It makes more sense to extend Yuli. |

Why trade Mcullers?
McCullers Is not a very good SP. He has spurts of good starts and then spurts of bad. He wants to be paid like Verlander but plays like Fiers. He needs to be a Closer type player. But has said he wants that money.
We have an abundance of SP but not so much on the Relief side. Drew Waters would be a perfect Target for a CF replacement. Young controllable and cost effective for a long period of time.
Why sign Nick Castellanos?
Because he is a very good Batter with Decent fielding.
Springer and Brantley are not gonna stay and F Reddick. Castellanos is looking for a long term deal and would sign one to secure a base of normality. Instead of moving his family around alot.
Why would you trade and aign Josh Bell? Makes more since for Yuli to stay!
Yuli is 100yrs old. Time will eventually catch up to the fella. Do you really wanna get stuck in a contract IE Albery Pujols Esc and have to continue to pay him when he:
A. Catches the I forget how to bat Bug.
B. Always on the injury list
C. Starts to become a cancer due to his possible placement on the bench IE Chris Davis when he does the above.

If Yuli wants anything more than a 2 year deal and 3rd year team option, then I don't think the Astross are interested..... But if he is for that, I hope the Astros re-sign him... |

Given the Astros current makeup and contracts, hopefully the Astros are not shopping for 4 to 5-year deals from free agents coming from other teams... I don't see Springer re-signing.... That might not be a bad thing, because he's going to get a huge, long commitment contract.... Carlos, they should trade in the off-season, if they can't re-sign Springer.. |

I think Carlos rebuilt some love this year. I think he gets resigned. Hince getting acouple players that aren't so expensive for a few years. I would front load Carlos Correas contract to realive some cap down the line. Js. Get it over with. |

To me Castellanos would be an awesome guy to lock up. In LF and Spot 1B and some DH. He is versatile in a sense he can cover three spots maybe 4 3b if your in a pinch. 5years 17m per would be ideal. I dont get why he gets so much hate? Dudes a hitter. And would thrive in Minute maid. |

again I dont see none of our OFers comming back. I see alot of poaching when FA period begins. I would go on a limb and say Springer to the Red Sox. Brantley back to the Indians and Reddick to Atlanta or Tampa areas.
Yuli to Toronto\Buffalo
You can come at me with the o its a down year and no team is gonna spend. No there gonna be teams qho will take advantage of this.
Also Astros need to sign Robbie Ray would go along way with Grienke

No way could we hide 2 awful fielders on the team. |

That was some of the most ridiculous jibberish you have ever posted. at least tty to be a little sensilble. Castellanos is a below average outfielder and a very inconsistent hitter. I wouldn't sign him for 5 weeks, let alone 5 years. As for McCullers, you don't trade a decent starting pitcher who could be a great reliever for Drew Waters, a minor leaguer with average offensive numbers who has not proven he belongs in the majors. We already have Myles Straw who looks like a better option than Waters. Your problem is that you would dump any plaver 30 or older to save money. Using your line of thinking, we would be constantly rebuilding and never win anything |

Castellanos averages a BA of .250 to .300 every year As for fielding in the OF he has 8 errors over his career. Try again sir. 7 years only 8 errors. Hmmm Your precious Springer had 16 over 6yrs. Hmm horrible OF by ur standards. Yes. So at 3B he is very bad. But you could say he can play 1B average at best. So let's see Springee Avgs .230 to .290. Hmm I wonder who would cost more? Idk but I would buy in on Castellanos and try and get another young OF like Waters so Tucker another Cheap guy can help us afford to sign lets say Correa long ter. Aswell. You can't babble the facts compare the two Coach come on. You cant Commie this up with us knowing the facts |

Castellanos can't come close to getting balls that Springer would easily catch. For him to keep comparing Castellanos to Springer proves what most of us think.....he has no clue. He was begging for Castellanos last year.......he has been begging for Realmuto.....He has foolishly bashed George and Yuli, who have both proven why we need them.

I think Brantley will be gone too...Only reason he might stay, given that he'll be 34 next season, if the Astros can sign him to a 2 year/30M deal, with the team option for a third year. Yuli, I hope he will take a 2 year/24M deal, with also a team option for a third year. I fear that George would cost more than Brantley and Yuli together...And we're talking probably about at 6 to 7 year commitment ... As opposed to Brantley and Yuli being maybe only two year commitments... |

As opposed to Brantley and Yuli being maybe only two year commitments... unfortunately, I think you are right about difficulty signing Springer. He will get $30 million a year or more. Since we are overpaying Altuve, we probably won't spend the money for George, although we should since we have no replacement. The two deals you mentioned for Brantley and Yuli are reasonable and I think we have a good chance to keep them with those offers. We have no use for Castellanos. What will be important going into the off-season will be how Yordan is after having surgery on both knees. Fortunately, we are beginning to see the kyle Tucker we were expecting when we drafted him...Unless I am mistaken, nathangarza wanted to trade him, too. Whitley is still unknown but I have doubts that he ever lives up to the headlines he got when Nolan Ryan labeled him as "can't miss". |

If we deal him, we need to get back a top pitcher and solid prospect. If we don't keep Carlos, we have a big hole to fill at SS...and we don't have anyone to fill it. |
