THSfanatic Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 He's a 25-30M/yr player. The Astros made a good move locking up his arbitration for 2 more seasons. Player & team both won here. He has guaranteed money and only 2 more years of control until he gets another arbitration in 2020. This is as good as the Astros could have hoped for. I don't see any way to keep him with Correa and Altuve coming up quickly. That's why we must hang on to Tucker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topher805 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Source : Houston Astros have engaged in trade discussions for JT Realmuto. OF Kyle Tucker is the ask by Miami. Astros are considering. 50% chance Realmuto is dealt before opening day. I'm good with the addition, but still a firm no on Tucker being traded...

That is a tough one. Catcher is one of the hardest position to fill & Realmuto is one of the best. I do not want to lose Tucker even if he is now considered our 2nd best prospect behind Whitley. It would definitely make us better for the next 1-2 years. McCann can handle the pitchers but has almost no arm, no speed, and little bat at his age. IMO elite catchers are rarer than elite pitchers so I can at least see the logic. I'd still stand pat with Tucker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregerson wasn't worth the 6+ million the Astros paid him in 2017. He gave up 31 ERs in 61 innings, 13 HRs and walked 20 batters. The Astros can do better than that for 6 million a year ....
