  1. The win total doesn't mean anything if you do not win the ws, the 2001 Mariners which won 116 games and then choked in the alcs.....

    That 2002-2004 Yankees didn't win any ws..

    The 2010-2014 Giants they didn't win 100 games but they were considered a dynasty, because they won three ws.

    This Astros team is very good but to be consider a dynasty they need to win more than one ws.

    I really don’t think any of that was in his contract. Everything he did fell under the terms of the MLB drug program, which followed him no matter where he signed. 

    He was subject to a lot more testing because of his past offenses and if he failed a test he was subject to harsher penalties, which included loss of salary. 

    The loophole was if he used drugs and admitted it, without failing a test, there were no penalties, but that was a loophole in the MLB drug program. It had nothing to do with the Angels. They had no power to add their own restrictions on to the MLB rules. 

    This is why you pay your agent big money, so they can teach you how to get out of the jail free of charge.....

    Right now, the Astros are the favorites to win the World Series. If they do, it would probably be pretty difficult for Cole to leave if the Astros offered him a big contract. I don't know why they wouldn't want to keep that rotation intact. I'm pretty sure they know they have something special.

    True, but Altuvs and Braman are getting big raise next year (32 mil) and Springer and Correa are in-line to get pay in the next 2 years, unless they are willing to spend 250 mil on payroll, otherwise I think they'll let Cole walk.
