They already replaced him with Greinke. Pro-active.
Also with Preston Tucker, Chase Whitley, Jose Urquidy, and Abraham Toro ready to join the first full season of Yordan Alvarez, I’d say the Astros are not dead yet...

Fair enough.
Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1
The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.
Claiming a team is in a down phase or at the end of its window sure sounds like opinion to me. The only definite facts about a lot of good players on both Boston and Houston is that they are proven winners.
I feel like I’m in a fucking alternate universe here. You’re stuck in the past. Are you sure you haven’t had a psychotic break?
Sale is damaged goods. Lost velocity due to a shoulder issue from 2018. Lost the last two mo the of 2019 with a still u resolved elbow issue. And I’m the one who isn’t in reality thinking that he isn’t gonna make it through the year healthy?
Price is damaged goods. He’s an older pitcher who hasn’t been healthy two of the last three seasons, lost velocity and is now coming off wrist surgery. But he’s a good bet to stay healthy?
Nate Eovaldi had one magical month in October 2018. He’s never been healthy, ever. He is coming off another poor year with poor health. And I’m the delusional one?
You added the king of durability and production in Perez. But he’s a great signing, of course, because YOU want him to be, lol
Erod has a good year last year with great run support and he stayed healthy for once. Of course, he’s gonna stay healthy forever!

Its hard to believe Yankee fandom is unconcerned about such a high risk. If the Sox had enough to sign him, I would have been against the length of contract and there are others here to express similar concerns.
