  1. I think Rosenthal, Chuck and others had it right….we were never very serious about Snell…..Ever…..
  2. I haven’t been in favor but signing Martinez would help some…and he would be relatively cheap, compared to Snell…and, if he hits well, give you a chip at the Trade Deadline.
  3. I'm not sure how things will end but Martinez is the only one of the remaining 3 that I could see us signing. Listening to Jim Duquette and Jeff Joyce on MLB Radio this morning, they didn't even mention us with Snell (Giants got the most discussion). But, I'm not sure I'd be surprised at anything that happens with Snell or Montgomery at this point.
  4. At this rate, nobody is going to be getting him for any more than 5 months.
  5. It could. Again, depends on how you spin it. I’d like to believe it means some substantive discussions with Arte doing more than saying no. If I’m guessing, I think Rosenthal probably got it right. Olney wasn’t necessarily inaccurate but maybe painted too optimistic a picture. Olney did say he thought Snell, in the end, would sign with the Angels.
  6. I said it depended on how you interpreted Olney’s report. “Back and forth” doesn’t sound like Arte continually saying no. Rosenthal’s report doesn’t sound like any real engagement. Back and forth does. But again, that may be my rose colored glasses.
  7. Rosenthal’s report about the Angels seemingly contradicts Olney’s report from earlier in the week…but I guess it depends on how you interpret Olney’s report.
  8. 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.
  9. So Boras has been fueling the rumors that we’re very much involved?
  10. May not be a “few years” if it’s an opt out deal after one year…..unlike us, they might be willing to forfeit the pick and pay the tax in the short term because they are a legit Series contender.
