dominik-keul@gmx.de 29 Report post Posted December 28, 2018 Pretty good deal, 14m one year and a 13m club option and 300k buyout. Without a second guranteed year pretty low risk. I wonder why not more teams were in on him at that price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the Astros also have made it clear they will decide what a player is worth to them based on their analytics and they will not go beyond that dollar amount/talent amount.

The Astros have plenty of guys that can use those at bats. The Astros have so much depth and versatility to the point where they can give a guy a break at the DH spot. I'm sure the injury-proned Brantley will see some time there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
