In Joel Sherman's Notes column for the New York Post, he reiterates what we heard (and by "we heard" we mean "we saw on Twitter") about the Astros being a dark horse for Shin-Soo Choo.
If the Astros sense much of the market has fallen away for Choo, perhaps they could step into that breach and offer, say, a six-year, $120 million deal if no one is willing to go to the seven-year, $140-ish million Choo is seeking.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
