Yep. Shruggie was the right reaction.

Interesting that rival evaluators don’t even think Paredes is playable at 2B.

There are days I think Dana Brown has a plan, just not one I like. And then there are days where I think he's just winging it.

Is Arenado washed?

orangefire.bsky.social•1 day ago

No. Just not worth his contract anymore.

Was worth 2.5 bWAR last year. Still good defensively.

No longer a star.

The big issue is the 3rd year on his deal.

Yes.

Arenado isn’t Abreu-2 is he?

If that’s the case, play a AAAA player at second. Based on our BlueSky Astros analysts, we have a bunch to choose from in spring trading right now.

eephustosser.bsky.social•1 day ago

Arenado is a perfectly-serviceable player, but his underlying metrics are essentially Mauricio Dubón with a bit more power.

To be the Astros three B
or not to be.
That is the question.
