    Larnachs ‘25 season stats are better than Lagemans whole career.
  2. Fatbat
    It sure would be exciting to see Martin leadoff if he infact could be close to a .400 obp guy for a full season. Somehow I just don’t see it but Gabby could be that guy by June 1.
  3. Fatbat
    Still filling out our roster with AAAA types. Does this move in any way make the roster better?
  4. Fatbat
    Im not disagreeing with you, he definitely has to find his hit tools. So did Gabby heading into ‘25. Houston is gold glove caliber so when he finds his bat, he will get pushed to AAA and be an injury away from mlb.
  5. Fatbat
    ‘26 is going to be a disaster if they don’t move on from 6-8 AAAA types. We better hope for a 1982/83 type rookie class that comes in and mashes and plays spectacular D by August. The current roster just sucks.

    @Nashvilletwin Even if Lebron is drafted, No way he will be our post lockout starting 3B in ‘27. I do like your lineup tho for 28/29 but it may also make include allstar 3B Royce Lewis.
  7. Fatbat
    @bunsen82 I agree with your assessments. Emerson will likely be our draft pick. LeBron will be gone by #3 and thats good because it restocks the high A shelf in ‘27. Its hard to imagine how erod,jenkins and gabby fit in the ‘26 mlb OF. It would be exciting tho! the minors are stacked with infielders that need to develop their hit tools in ‘26! Winoker needs to spend time at 1B. Can you imagine a 6’6” athletically gifted 1B that can be in the 30/30 club for a decade. Crazy to think about. If Houston finds the Arraez hit tools. He will be HOF. The ‘27 day one prospect list is going to be loaded for sure!

    This roster is ugly.

    Didn’t Brent Rooker have a few issues in his swing and development? All the guys that say this guy cant& that guy wont ever are just silly guesses as to how someone’s career might go. Sit back and be patient. All these guys are way to young to count out. They all could be MLB regulars, all stars or AAAA wash outs. Might even get an HOF’r from this group. We don’t know yet.
  10. Fatbat
    It was a great idea and went down a cliff from there.
  11. Fatbat
    They are selling the same smoke and mirrors. Yes, we have young pitching talent but its going to take time to develop mlb set up and closer like jax and duran. I also don’t want another pagan/colume FA signing
  12. Fatbat
    What do you think about the FO cooking up a trade to get a legitimate high end reliever in exchange for a LH OF/DH… we have a few. In a perfect world, we could sign a FA closer but there is no budget for that.
  13. Fatbat
    The only way to say the FO has been a success is if the next crop of prospects develop and become MLB stars. The farm is full of talent but how much is actually going to be MLB talent? There is no way we are going to win ball games with 6-7 of the guys currently the 40 man. ownership will continue to be cheap for now so the FO has to lean into playing the kids in MLB. Lots of them. It’s going to be painful but at least it’s not going to be Joey Gallo retread type painful to watch. Playing the next wave of kids and letting them take their lumps and bumps in MLB will definitely be a change thats worth it.
  14. Fatbat
    I’m surprised no one has brought up Cavaco as the biggest draft bust in recent history. Easily top 10 worst draft picks in MLB history.
  15. Fatbat
    *Unless he is a future HOF twin and helps us win a couple WS titles.
  16. Fatbat
    I understand your logic but it really boils down to how do they spend the money saved by shipping C4 out. Right now, the money isnt being spent or even planned on spending it. Since the FO/ownership is going to be frugal until the team starts winning, why not implore & TEACH Larnach and or Wallner to play 1B. We have in house guys that have the ability and project as average to above average athletes with defensive capabilities. Just get it done.
  17. Fatbat
    Who cares who we pick, start planning the parade!! 🤣 whoever we do pick, he will undoubtedly be in the top 5 prospects in the org so we win no matter what when he gets to the bigs.
  18. Fatbat
    He is a huge upgrade over Julien,Gasper,Clemons etal. Hope he can teach Larnach and Wallner a thing or two.
  19. Fatbat
    @tony&rodney I have no info if they would trade Duran in a package to get a younger OF’r like erod? Also it sounds like Tom Pohlad is only willing to take a big swing at adding talent/salary if the current team is competitive first.
  20. Fatbat
    IM a fan of trade bundles, not one for one. Obviously a fan of Pablo, Ryan and Duran so if we had a trade package that sent Pablo or Ryan to Boston and we got Duran and a big RH bat in exchange. I just don’t know who to FO values more other than, Duran was traded away and the other two are still here. straight up, Pablo or Ryan is worth more than Duran imho.
  21. Fatbat
    Not straight up
  22. Fatbat
    Duran is in Boston for a long time!! Nothing outside of Pablo or Ryan will get Duran.
  23. Fatbat
    It would be nice to get another young corner infielder like Mayo on the roster. We should aim for more of a trade package tho. We have been light on LHP for years. Former Twins draft pick, Cade Povich has 22 starts in mlb with pedestrian type stats. 5.21 era 1.5 whip but he won’t be 26 until April. we could package Ober, Morris and Julien or something similar for Mayo and Povich. Makes our roster more flexible while upgrading the O’s SP pool.
  24. Fatbat
    Just gonna sit back and watch how this all plays out.
  25. Fatbat
    A MLB catcher was worse at the plate than C. Vasquez? WOW.
