    Why the Astros Will Win the 2017 AL West

    Not even a month into the off-season, and Luhnow has already made 4 significant additions to a team that came close to the playoffs last season. Each of them have addressed problems with last year's club. In no particular order those were:    1- Horrendous offensive production in the OF 2- A...

    Non QB, who is your teams most valuable player?

    JJ Watt....duh. He's more valuable than our QB or the QB of a lot of teams out there...   Other than him, I'd say DeAndre Hopkins....he builds the value of whoever is throwing to him. He makes everyone around him better...

    How Can We Improve SI?

    can we not lock the threads in the MLB Player Comparison section? It'd be nice to finish up conversations in some of the threads once the voting ends.

    MLB Player Rankings 2016: #1 Left Fielder

    it's close between Marte and Braun. Marte edges him out in WAR, but only because of slightly better defense. They are really different types of players, both good in their own right.

    MLB Player Rankings 2016: #1 Left Fielder

    Ian Desmond should really be on this list since he has been a LF all season for the Rangers. He'd be my #2, and I'd even entertain an argument for #1.

    MLB Player Rankings 2016: #3 Shortstop

      Jeter was the media's golden boy. He could do no wrong. He suffered from the same bullshit Jim Edmonds did his entire career. They both made the "spectacular plays" that a good fielder would make look routine. Edmonds was always diving because he took the worst routes and got bad jumps on...

    MLB Player Rankings 2016: #3 Shortstop

      I wouldnt say that necessarily. His defense is okay at SS. The Astros seem committed to him there which is why Bregman (who is likely better defensively) is at 3rd. If Jeter and his mediocre defense can stick at SS, then Correa can too...

    2016 Rio Olympics Discussion

    I find it hilarious, yet pathetic, that a country/city that has shown next to no regard for the quality of their water and overall health conditions will run an ad warning against global warming. These non-western countries do so much more to harm the environment it's not even funny. It's...

    MLB Player Rankings 2016: #4 Shortstop

    Corey Seager is right where a rookie belongs. Back it up next year and he will climb up quickly

    MLB Player Rankings 2016: #3 Shortstop

        I was only joking :)   SS has been a hole. Dickie Thon probably had the best season for an Astros SS offensively speaking. Adam Everrett was awesome with his glove, but no power. Miguel Tejada was only here a short while and well after his prime. We have just never had a truly great SS. It's...

    but Correa is the Astros All-Time leader for HR's by a SS

    MLB Player Rankings 2016: #1 Short Stop

    Gimme Correa. Give him a year and he will be better than all the guys on this list. Heck, he's up there with them all right now. I dont mind a Bogaerts/Lindor vote. Those should be the top 3 though....

    Trade Deadline Winners/Losers

    I think the Brewers and the Yankees came out on top. This was a seller's market through and through, and they took advantage of that with the quality players that they had to deal.    Everyone can say that the Rangers won at this deadline because of the quality guys they got in return. I'm not...

    I was on the site just browsing when my screen shot to the Chrome icon and auto-downloaded a Chrome patch that my computer identified as malware. Has anybody else had this problem???

    Trade Deadline Deals?

    this trade deadline has been pretty lame. The rental market is so crappy, that teams are having to explore guys like Sale/Archer/Velasquez who would cost a fortune in prospects. But they are so desperate that they are trying. Still, nobody wants to give up the prospects to make those kinds of...
