The Astros have only a small number of needs --backup catcher, bullpen, and maybe a left handed hitting outfielder. How much will they go over the luxury tax to address them?
Good stuff. I share the desire to add a LHB. I think I prefer it to be a corner OF. But a CF, like Kiermaier, would probably be fine. I think I lean toward more of a slugger than a speed/defense guy as Chas/Meyers/Dubon are all pretty confident in that regard in CF (or a corner). Of course, a slugging corner OF should be more plentiful (and cheaper) than a slugging CF who can play strong defense.
One of my undergraduate professors is a never Trump former Republican. He's got a whole list of reasons (wrote a book on it), but Heidi is one of his former students, and well, he thinks Trump's treatment of her is unforgiveable.
