Bill O'Brien is seemingly in the news every day and for all the wrong reasons. First it was for trading Hopkins for pennies on the dollar, and now for the way he treats his players.
ESPN 97.5's John Granato, Raheel Ramzanali, and Lance Zierlein discuss what would have to happen for fans to stop buying season tickets and supporting the team, which would lead to Bill O'Brien being fired.
In today’s episode, we dive into the bombshell report that Jeremy Peña has turned down a five-year, $105 million contract extension from the Houston Astros — a move that could have major implications for his future in Houston.
We take you through the reported timeline of the contract talks and explore how Peña’s recent decision to sign with super-agent Scott Boras might shape the next phase of negotiations. What does this all mean for Astros fans hoping to see Peña stay in Houston long-term? Is there still a path forward, or did the front office miss its window?
We also examine what this moment reveals about the Astros’ broader strategy, and whether their approach to homegrown stars is due for a serious rethink.
