Uh, Mancini is a righty? No?


Yes.

Good hitter, but he doesn't really fill much need at all, other than maybe a good double switch guy in the World Series NL park games.

same. I wouldn't be upset adding Trey. He's been solid this year

If that report on Mancini is true, Tucker is gone, and we're getting a TOR pitcher.

Why trade for Mancini? They dont need him in the outfield. Diaz and Yuli have 1st covered. Alvarez can handle left and right pitching. Unless they're not planning on resigning Springer or Brantley, or both.

Yes he's listed at righty but trust me the guy can swing it lefthanded.. 873 ops this year. 24 Bombs 27 years old and controllable beginning his prime.

To think there are those that post here that don’t appreciate the inside info you bring.


The Astros management is gonna flip the baseball world on its head again when we trade for Mancini and turn him around to make him a lefty.

I've seen his LH swing and reminds me of Russell branyan in his prime.

The name doesn't really excite me, but the numbers have been pretty good and would fit in very well as a #3 or #4 starter.

Plus he's under control through 2022.

Same, seems like he could be a candidate to make a few tweaks

You keep trying to add Russell Branyan to the lineup. Must be the missing piece.

Apparently, Elias is trying to pull a fast one on Ludlow by offering Mancini but sending back Jonathan F. Villar instead.
