earlier all the talk was that the cubs were cutting a deal with appel that was too high for the astros to go (7 million). But now some are saying the astros are back to talking with him.

Hopefully the rays can get someone out of this class. Haven't had a class produce a big leaguer since 07

Astros are gonna take Gray, and I'm okay with that.

ETA: they will not take a position player with the current condition of the team.

Bryant only K'd at around 14% this past season, but he faced poor competition. He had K problems in summer leagues and this past season for team USA. I don't think he'll have Chris Carter like contact problems, but he should have a healthy K rate against more advanced pitching.

Per my Insider account, Keith Law's latest mock.

quote:

Analysis: So the last rumor of the night Wednesday … or the small hours of Thursday morning, had the Astros trying to nail down a price from Appel so they could take him with the first pick and still ensure that they had enough savings to exceed MLB's bonus recommendations with picks 40 and 74. They could still take Colin Moran, or Jonathan Gray, or (least likely) Kris Bryant.



This is what I want to happen personally.

Law sucks. He's always seemed to have beef with the astros after they didn't hire him when he interviewed

Ever watch MLB Tonight?

I always feel the same about Mitch Williams when they're talking about the Astros.
