Sources w/knowledge of TAMU search process tell me Jimbo-Fisher has a deal to be next Head Coach
@AggieFootball
.Fisher will coach 1 final game at FSU but not Bowl game should they become eligible. I'm told his TAMU contract will be at least 5 yrs/7.5 million per year.

@Ken_Rosenthal
Come on Ken , be better. Harsh?? Push your Anti-Astros bias aside for a moment. This was intentional by Joe Kelly and everyone knows it. He also tried to trip up Brantley at first base on top of his other antics. MLB made the right decision.

Ken, you don't cover the

or spend much time in Houston. Don't mislead. Get connected first. This city is ALL about the Astros success and already ramping up for 2023.
Cal McNair, it's time to make your plans for this staff. Also GM Nick Caserio who you allowed to construct this mess. He has been a disaster. You should be embarrassed at this product.
#Texans
The deal between Aggies and Jimbo Fisher has been done. Sources with knowledge of the process say 7.5 million /yr. For "Likely" 10 yrs. Negot. Began with at least 5 yrs..I am told he will arrive Sunday evening. Approval Monday followed by introduction

Keeping Carlos Correa can still happen for
#Astros
if Jim Crane can get creative. Carlos knows he can stay & be on a contender. That's impt to him. 6yr/210m still makes sense. But that # could /should go ☝as talks continue. Carlos is getting calls/FT's from his HOU teammates.
There should be no more delay on Kirby. It's time now for Cal McNair/Nick Caserio to call up Jack Easterby to the office. In football terms, it's time to turn in the playbook and cut bait.

's message was clear. He is still well connected to this

lockerroom.
Sources w/ knowledge of discussions tell me that UH & Kelvin Sampson are closing in on a new deal. The hope is it's done within 48 hrs. Last Monday, UH offered a 6 yr/18 million deal
I'm told both sides are working hard to get it done .

@KPRC2
Report is out on an Astros 5 yr offer to Carlos Correa but as I wrote on Click2Houston after the Game 6 loss, MLB sources had told me the latest #'s they said were on the table: 6 yrs/210 million (35m avg/yr). No comment fr
#Astros
on those talks.
@KPRC2
Being told this morning by sources familiar w/ the coaching search that internally at UH there is significant momentum building now towards Tulane HC Willie Fritz. Won big at Sam Houston, Ga So & now with the Green Wave. 12-2 last yr, 11-1 this yr. Play in AAC title game Sat
I've been patient with Jake, but I've seen enough of Odorizzi as a whole. Just not consistent and what they need rest of the way.
He's done for the night: 5.1 IP 8 hits, 4 ER, 89 pitches.

have agreed to a 5-year contract extension with All-Star second baseman Jose Altuve, GM Dana Brown announced today
The extension will cover seasons 2025-29!
This is really rough watching the AB's of Jose Abreu. No bat speed, no power and on top of that average defense. He also shouldn't be hitting 4th right now.

Thoughts and prayers go out to former

This

start is a huge concern now. 7-17 & I'm not seeing any type of emotion. Someone inside that player clubhouse needs to be vocal & challenge teammates. The past 7 years don't matter. I need to see a sense of urgency now or they'll be done by early June.
Sources with knowledge of the details tell me that UH & officials earlier this week offered a 6 year deal worth 18 million to Kelvin Sampson.

Hearing from multiple sources tied to the UH search that former TCU Head Coach Gary Patterson is a name to watch.
