Which is why I said the problem is Crane not continuing to spend after going above the CBT to get Hader. We are seeing it with the insistence to continue to play Jose Abreu even though there are free agent 1B that could help the team, and Loperfido is waiting in AAA.
Stanek only got 4M from the Mariners. He should have been back in Houston to be depth in the bullpen at that salary. Montero has been the Astros’ best reliever to this point.
