Brett and Eric discuss how the MLB Free Agent Market shift seems to trend toward short-term High AAV deals. What does that do with who is available? Do we see any possibility of this being something the Astros would be willing to go after Santander? We know Alonso is not in the Astros market. The discussion is how these others affect anyone the Astros might target.

The Astros are already projected to be over the first CBT again for the second straight season after signing Christian Walker. There are many penalties for back-to-back seasons exceeding the CBT. The Astros have been actively looking to deal with former closer Ryan Pressly to open up some cap space. By doing so, they could also answer who is in the outfield. The Astros have added another Alvarez to the farm system, well, they will soon add him.

Brett and Eric go over what we call an all-hands-on-deck conversation. The Corbin Burnes contract may have helped the Astros. We will explain. Yes, Wheelhouse is not on the trade Framber Valdez unless it's this offseason, but he wants to keep him. Plus, there are three realistic options to help in the outfield.
