Luhnow just denied that a trade was imminent. So we’re back to nothing happening this offseason.
Not nothing really, but we’re more than a month since the Judge trade and almost that much (2 days shy) since the Osuna trade and there’s been pretty much nothing since.
We’re about 35 days from pitchers and catchers reporting and literally none of the top free agent starting pitchers have signed. The best free agent starter to sign is either Chacin or Chatwood. The best free agent position player to sign is either Cozart or Santana.
It’s like a game a musical chairs where no one is ever stopping the music or removing any chairs.
Astros get Cole. Good for the Cubs in that they won't face him until the WS but IMO, that makes the Astros the favorites, if not prohibitive favorites to repeat. People here are stoked.
