I do like they we are trying out different contract structures. Feels like we are behind the times in that regard.

Absolutely. Great to see us involved in the NPB market as well. This guy is going to be fun to watch

He's really good. Datsun Dana doing work.

AL fricked, bet we sign JV soon.

I found a negative. He's horrendous at controlling the running game. Definitely an Astro.

Talk about unexpected
I figured we’d end up with JV eating innings for $10 M
How does this affect the salary cap and is a corresponding move necessary?
I really don’t remember what we had to work with

Fangraphs has us just under 238. Tax is at 244.

Thx
I’m guessing it would take a unique situation for us to give up picks and money again, so $6M ain’t much left to get an OF and/or reliever

Still think we make one more trade

Chandler (I know we don’t really like him but his pod does produce some good nuggets and he has his finger on the pulse. Seemingly a pretty dependable insider) said he thinks they will likely end up moving one of Walker or Parades to free up some money.
The Walker stuff seems like a long shot since the teams that seemed like a fit (Mets and Red Sox) addressed their 1st base issues. If the Astros pay down some of the salary and receive an outfielder think he can still help a team where he’s not the focal point of the offense. Losing Parades would really suck, but the return would probably be pretty good controllable talent.
They need an impact outfield bat even though it’s kind of a logjam out there right now even with Yordan primarily DH’ing. If they can find a corner outfielder they could allow Cam to season in AAA some if he has a poor spring and just run Sanchez out there.
They also need to find a backup catcher maybe. Salazar is a fine player, great teammate and pretty good defender but wouldn’t hurt to have someone with a better bat
