Sounds like Boras trying to drive the price up.

When Ken writes these types of articles, usually it comes hours before the deal is done

[Ochocinco!]

Agree with MMC, if Rosenthal is being this blunt usually it happens within 24 hours. Well it was a fun ride while it lasted boys, who needs snell when we have Wantz!

[Stradling]

Snell will be signed by the Angels or Astros by the end of the weekend. I assumed Montgomery would be in Houston since he wanted to be in Texas.

Well, he also mentioned the Angels and Yankees. So you're probably right.

Both can be true.

I think Snell is going to be an Astro, and soon. Just feels like the break out from the thaw that Boras has been positioning for. We’ll see.

With Urquidy down now it makes sense for them. 

If they sign Snell and Texas signs Montgomery...

[Stradling]

It would be absolutely fucking awful if that were to happen

I would be fine with that if we also get JD Davis and JD Martinez.

If he threw 60 pitches, that was definitely a “simulated” four innings.  Reality would have been 80 pitches.

Once Snell, Montgomery, Clevenger and Lorenzen sign with other teams how soon should the Corbin Burnes thread start.

Arte has a terrible track record of going toe to toe with other teams for a player he and other teams equally want. Especially when it's a pitcher. 

They should have wrapped this shit up a week ago before the Urquidy injury. Arte is a dumbass. He has ZERO direction for this team and it's obvious the direction that Perry wants to take (and Wash and Trout) aren't on the same page as the owner. 

Sad to see.

Which is why we should have just claimed him instead of wasting money on kolarek and Plesac
