Funny how Stros fans applaud not getting Bauer because he’s an a-hole, then they accept Greinke...another a-hole.


I didn't realize several current Astros were actively shite talking Grienke as a result of cheating accusations, like they are with Bauer.

This doesn’t make Greinke less of an a-hole.

You've become quite obsessed with and agitated by the Astros. LOL at you today.

True.

But it is the specific reason many Stros fans didn't want Bauer. Myself included.

LOL

Mets and Cardinals talked about Wheeler. Mets wanted Harrison Bader or Tyler Oneil. Cardinals said no, Bader was not worth 10-11 starts from Wheeler in a playoff race.

Holy shite these guys are inept. They believe Bader can be a star CF who hits 25-30hr.

Bader for Wheeler would have made a lot of sense for both sides.

I wouldn't like it. Trading young prospects for a 2 month below average rental is not worth it at all.

The kid we gave up for Kolarek is a pretty interesting prospect. Niko Hulsizer, OF, 22. Hitting .265 this year between Great Lakes and Rancho Cucamonga. 20 HR and 67 RBI.

Niko Hulsizer


The guy from truebluela.com had Hulsizer as the Dodgers #17 prospect at midseason

They are listening to Jim Emdonds on Bader, as he claims Bader can be a 30 homer guy. LOL

What a joke this org has become.

Tony, Walt, and Jeff L built a winner, then Mo'ron got the keys and has run it into the ground. LOL at the salary already on the books for next season. It's a clown show.

Wheeler would be the best starter on the Cards if acquired

His 4.7 ERA would be the worst, actually.

Mets defense is atrocious. He would be first in xFIP and WAR by a pretty decent margin. I’m not sure if him being your best starter is an argument to trade for him or an argument against it though tbh
