I'm sure Tuck would do an extension. $600MM for 13 years would extend him.
zero chance he sings an extension with the cubs DURING the season. He's going to flirt with all the teams first.

While I agree in principle, I don't think he's turned down 13/600 deal

He's got a 1.1 WAR thru 18 games. If if remotely continues this pace the entire season, I could see a world where he turns that down and pushes for something like 650. That MLBPA can never seem to have the next guy make the same as the guy last year.

Keep in mind Tucker is older than Soto and Vlad. I think 12 years is probably the max he gets. At $40 M a year it's "only" $480.

Tell me about Wesneski, is he coming into his own after splitting a few years in the minors?

Local kid. Went to Sam. He's got like a true 6 pitch mix. The Astros pitching lab has him relying on the 4 seam more vs RHH with his already highly used sweeper but fewer sinkers. Vs LHH more cutters and change ups, fewer sweepers. Walls are down. Strike outs are up. He's been surgical with his location.

I apologize for TMI, but I'm going through something really lousy and I'm going to be leaning on this thread and the Astros to try and get through a lot of the upcoming struggle. I apologize for my post count quadrupling over the rest of the season because 50% of my posts (low estimate) are usually dumb.

To be honest, 50% is a pretty high success rate here. Hang in there

All of us on this thread may not know each other personally or in real life, but we know the screen names. We know the posters. This place is a mini-brotherhood. We've been through Astros joy and pain together. This thread is an escape and it gives little glimmers of joy when life gets too heavy.

So, post away.

We are here. We will continue to be here, and we are glad you are part of it.

I think half my time is spent on this thread and Aggie baseball (yes, I'm a glutton for punishment) the bourbon trading thread, or the Aggieland board since I'm a local.

Post away, man. Life sucks sometimes.

I hope you get through whatever it is you're going through. The best thing about baseball is you get it nearly everyday so there's always something to see and complain (err talk) about.

100% Agree

Post as much as you need/want, 1836. And we will root on our Stros together and celebrate their success, ***** together at their shortcomings, and always talk **** about those dewshnossles in Arlington

Well non-Astro related, but last week I learned if you insult the Spurs on the Rockets (granted by posting a T-shirt that says F the Spurs), you get a 1 day ban

He had some decent outings in Chicago as well.

A sports show I listen to says "baseball is boring, but it happens a lot". I laugh way too hard when they say that.

But yes it can be a good distraction in times of struggle. Hoping things work out as good as possible for Mr. 1836

Astros Bingo update:
Paredes is now running ahead of his 25+ HR pace at 32
Dodgers have cooled off and fallen under their 108 W threshhold at a lousy 105.
