We don't have another shortstop to replace Correa so that wouldn't make sense. Bregman is not an everyday shortstop.


Straw can play SS.

Wait.

frick.

For real, it doesn't make any sense and would never happen, but if you had Diaz at SS and Bryant in CF and Straw on the bench is it an upgrade to Correa at SS and Straw in CF and Diaz on the bench?

I think yes, but not even close to enough to make that move.

The last 3 series we won every game except the last one. So far in this Yankees series, we've lost the first game. By the facts of science, we will then win the next two games and win the series against the a-hole Yankees.

This will happen ladies and gentlemen. It's etched in stone.

The defense would be an unmitigated dumpster fire.

Getting Bryant means getting rid of Correa. Not the best move IMO.... but what ever makes them worse I’m all for it.

That how cheaters and liars can look themselves in the mirror every day. They try to convince themselves that everyone else is just as corrupt as they are.

No it doesn't. That was just one crazy idea.

If the Astros are buyers, they aren't moving Correa. If they are sellers, they aren't trading for Bryant.

I'm sorry bud, is there some sort of connection between these two things?

I mean I'd love to have Ronald Acuna and Jacob DeGrom on the team while we're at it.

For which team do you root? I can guarantee you your team at some point in the history of baseball has cheated. If you’ve had a steroid user, spitball user, ball scuffer, etc., your team has cheated. Now frick off.

Gave Odor, who could possibly be the worst hitter in baseball, two balls on pitches in the zone with two outs in a tied game.


The turning point in the game here. It's going to be a very different at bat for a player with a 2-2 count and 2 out with 2 on than hitting with a 3-0 count. I'll agree that maybe the Astros still lose, but if Odor is out there, we go into the top of the 7th tied 3-3. Those calls at the plate with Odor batting were awful.

Which means the Astros weren’t the only ones doing it. Multiple teams were doing it, probably all of the best teams those years were using some kind of system. That’s why the MLB did nothing.


Prove it, Sherlock.


Only reason the Astros were punished was because of Fiers. Without Fiers, the Astros get the same punishments as the Red Sox and the Yankees got in the past...almost none. My proof is Beltran coming to the Astro organization and telling them how behind they are compared to the NYY.

I'm not entirely sure Peej is aware of Correa's impending free agency
