Their sticking point is the original argrement was 6.5m but Astros lowered it after their doctors looked at Aiken (only speculation on my part)
Nah. Let's just say that the Astros should have spent $6.5M on a damaged product and they didn't because they're cheap and Aiken is never going to have arm issues. 100% never going to have arm issues in his career. It fits the status quo amongst some posters around here.

He is not damaged
They saw a condition that increases the possibility of future damage
Huge risk by astros
If they sign him and he gets hurt, it is a "shite happens" moment
If they sign him and he succeeds, it is a good pick
If they dont sign him and he succeeds, ownership likely cleans house
If they dont sign him and he gets hurt, they look like geniuses

People keep saying damaged product which I don't understand. His UCL isn't torn. There could be absolutely no issue with his left arm.....ever. The astros made a huge mistake IMO. OK so we get #2 next year, they're just gonna pull the same shite. Plus it'll be a lot harder to sign guys under slot next year due to this. Over 1.5 million? Just don't get it.
Also why did we wait till 5 minutes before the deadline to up the offer to 5 mil? That's just a slap in the face. If you're willing to go that high don't insult the by waiting till the last minute.
ETA: and all of y'all swing they decided to lower it due to the UCL issue.....every pitcher has that risk. Look at all the players having TJ this year.
