king Posted December 18, 2018 Report Share Posted December 18, 2018 Just signed Michael Brantley from the Indians. I like this pickup. also got a pretty good player from the Jays who will take Marwins spot. Charlie Morton to the Rays. Kuechel and Gonzalez most likely won’t be back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hook'em Posted December 18, 2018 Report Share Posted December 18, 2018 Brantley at 2 years/$32 mil is a good deal if (and a big if) he can stay healthy. Dude hit .307 with 17 jacks and 87 RBI last year and has the second lowest strikeout percentage and most importantly gives Houston a much needed left handed bat in the lineup as well as flexibility in the OF and at DH. I expect them to get atleast a starter, maybe 2 or maybe a starter and power hitter, before the season starts. Luhnow isn't done making moves. P.S. - Remember the lack of production Houston got from its primary DH in 2017 (Beltran) on a 1 year/$16 mil contract and they won the WS that year.
