@JeremyBranham 80 mil including incentives. I like big incentives like 4/60-70 + 2/yr for 800 OPS 3/yr for 850 OPS. Homeruns/extra base hits thresholds.

Would y’all extend Esock Paredes right now on a 4-year $80m deal? Tack it on to what he’s owed next year.

A major reason soccer will never supplant America’s core professional sports is because we value physical bravery above all other attributes in our sports stars. Curt Schilling’s bloody sock. Ronnie Lott chopping off the tip of his finger so he could stay in the game. Mark Bavaro dragging half the 49ers’ secondary while his broken jaw was wired shut. Michael Jordan having the best game of his life with a 103 degree fever. Willis Reed limping onto the floor for Game 7. Lou Gehrig playing with ALS until his body said “no more.” Dave Dravecky pitching so hard that his arm had to be amputated. Kirk Gibson hobbling to the plate in the 9th. Tiger Woods winning the US Open on a knee that days later required reconstructive surgery. Kerri Strug sticking the landing on her busted ankle for the gold. Sure, we have our LeBron Jameses acting like little babies, but the one thing I learned about futbol during the World Cup is that acting like a little injured baby is not only not frowned upon, it is ENCOURAGED as a strategic advantage. Americans want stoic heroes who persevere through pain. Soccer ain’t that, at least not in the day-to-day elements of the game. That’s why soccer will never be anything other than second-rate in the USA.

@finnation @Chandler_Rome I get it, a handful of unmovable assets costing 10+mil a year. They were over the luxury tax because of his decisions and additions though and still didn't get the job done. I get it. Maybe he does well if he's not in this situation but he played the budget lottery every year

Nate Pearson is the third of Astros GM Dana Brown’s six offseason, major-league pitching acquisitions to be designated for assignment this season. The three that remain on the 40-man roster have combined for a 5.51 ERA across 210 ⅔ innings.

@LangmanVince No he wouldn't. American football is too simple for a player like that. His talent is beyond any wide reciever

In case you're wondering why America will never be in the World Cup finals, it's because if a young athlete with the speed and agility of Lamine Yamal grew up in America, he'd be playing wide receiver at a college like LSU and then in the NFL like Ja'Marr Chase.

If the Astros get swept by the Orioles, should Jim Crane fire Joe Espada?

Ray Delgado is in the Astros’ clubhouse. Nate Pearson is packing his bags and getting hugs from teammates. Pearson does not have minor-league options remaining and, according to a source, has been DFA’d. No official word from the Astros yet.

U.S. Soccer is exploring a complete overhaul of the youth soccer system amid renewed scrutiny of pay-to-play following the USMNT's Round of 16 World Cup exit — with the goal of making the game more accessible and affordable 🇺🇸⚽️ U.S. Soccer COO Dan Helfrich: “We are not seeking to make the current system more affordable. We’re trying to create a new system that then we make highly affordable. It’s a really important distinction.” Arsène Wenger, speaking alongside Helfrich at U.S. Soccer’s headquarters outside Atlanta: “From outside, I felt that people from a poor background had no access to the game. That is quite a big part of the population that usually in Europe, the best football players come from poor backgrounds. We want maybe a job to do as well to make it possible and available for everybody and after to be consistent because it’s not a short-term fix.” The discussion centered on how the federation can continue growing the sport after what U.S. Soccer CEO JT Batson called an “incredibly successful” World Cup that “has fundamentally changed the trajectory of the sport in the United States.”

🚨 Zlatan Ibrahimović: 🗣️ "Third-place playoff goals shouldn't be included in World Cup statistics." 🗣️ "It's unfair on players who reach the final. Someone can miss out on the Golden Boot simply because another player had an extra game to score in the third-place match." Do you agree with Zlatan, or should every World Cup match count equally? 🤔

I don’t think people realize how absurd this is. Scottish runner Josh Kerr just broke the mile world record in 3:42.66, an average speed of 16.2 mph. Most people couldn’t even briefly reach that speed, let alone sustain it for an entire mile.

@astros The draft is over. Get rid of Dana or give him a demotion. He's not a GM. 2 weeks. 2 weeks to prove he's capable.
