Yea. They havnt really said but it’s being assumed. Abreu is back and noticeably lighter. Looking really good.

Yesterday I bought some tickets to go see the game with the family in April. First game in almost two years!

The astros have offered lance a long term deal. Don’t know the specifics but they are in deep talks.

I can’t find specifics either. I’ve seen 4 for $40mm and 5 for $80mm lol. Quite a big gap, so I’m curious what the final will be. I think Rosenthal reported it as being already agreed on and closed. But that’s Rosenthal...

Lol both those I saw were fake accounts trying to go viral. I haven’t seen any numbers yet. If they can close out soon that gives them a week to focus on Carlitos.

[emoji1377][emoji1377][emoji1377] love it. Lance is ready! He built up to a 90 pitch simulated game today. Said he is ready... first time in a while he hasn’t been rehabbing. Expect great things early with him

Correa turned down 120 million 6 year.. no traction but still time.

That tells me they don’t trust him to stay healthy to justify a long term big deal. They are going to roll the dice since the SS FA class is so strong. I would love to see him remain an Astro. He is the true leader of that team IMO.

I think it was a starting place, trying to get some value back similar to the Bregman and Altuve extension, but Correa is going to want it all. 6 for 200 should get it done and let’s him get another contract at 30 yrs old. They will have 90-100 million available next year for free agents.

Opening day... can’t wait but hate the west coast games. They were still talking to Correa as of last night but doubtful they come to a deal. Lindor just signed for 10 years 341 million. I just don’t think Crane/Click will do a 10 yr deal. They tend to like the 5 range... either way we will have an answer later and another year of stros ball coming

The good news is Correa will have a monster year, they always do when the contract is up.
