Yeah I think you're right. They certainly are not shy telling you what they think they are worth. lolHe's probably asking for too many years and too much money.

It is ironic and sad that we covet a RH bat, yet at the same time we refuse to get rid of the second baseman to make room for Solak's bat. A great answer is staring them right in the face. We need some new decision makers in a bad way.
May become necessary to alternate Solak and Odor. Not the best choice but may be the only one we have if we don't get a RH batgoing to be pissed if we don’t get a good RH bat.
I agree with other people’s sentiment here that one more decent bat would give us a punchers chance at a wild card.
not saying we should build our team with the wildcard in mind, but it does seem like we would have a shot at it with a decent offense.

It is best chance we have "if" we need a RHB. Probably wont happen tho.you know as well as I do that “ the chosen one” won’t see a reduction in playing time.
Either management still thinks he’s going to develop into the next willie Mays or they’re afraid to make a move against him.
he’s not going to come into the office and start punching people!
I wonder what it would take to get Jon Berti from the Marlins? He is very versatile, hits for good avg, draws walks, has speed and can play CF and 3B. He’s an overall complete player that should produce 4 WAR if he gets to play everyday.
Reminds me of Whit Merrifield a little
We have a place for Solak. The problem is not where the place is. It is 2B and up to JD to do the right thing. To be fair, Solak and Odor should have equal opportunity to open the season as the 2B starter in ST. It is up to JD to see this happens. Will he? Has not to date but we'll see.Man we really need to find a spot for Nick Solak.
I wonder how many games in center he will play.
I wonder how well he would play in center..
He has the speed.

Another guy who was rumored with the Rangers, but who wouldn't sign here for a discount apparently.
We don’t need him anyway. We don’t need to be signing cost-effective and proven relievers to improve our bullpen when we can just stick a bunch of failed minor league starting pitchers out there. I mean, Jeffrey Springs is essentially the same pitcher... you know, because he is a baseball player whose position is listed as pitcher. Same thing.Another guy who was rumored with the Rangers, but who wouldn't sign here for a discount apparently.
I would have much rather Wash landed there.What do you guys think of Jeff banister possibly managing the Astros?
I hope it happens. Let them inherit his dismal playoff record.
Well apparently we got outbid by the Reds on CastellanosThese owners suck balls.
I can understand being outbid by LA, NY, Chicago, or philly but almost anyone else is unacceptable.

It’s comical at this point. There’s only 3 explanations to explain why castellanos and a reliever who would make the roster weren’t signed. All 3 reasons suck. They are :
1) The owners are a bunch of tightwads
2) management believes way too much in our guys.
-With the way condor hit last year, we needed to bring in someone who could easily step in if he shits the bed at the plate.
- Jeffrey springs has no business being on this roster.
3) the owners don’t give a shit. They just pretend that they do.
It could be anyone of the 3 or a combination of them, but I’m disappointed that they decided to make our starting pitching better, but they’re pretty much leaving our lineup and bullpen alone. Both of those areas needed a little help as well.
