Brady Aiken

Baseball tanking doesn't...

Uh, so I'll say it did work for Houston, but it only worked for the Houston Astros because of they got lucky, and the luck was that, uh, Brady Aiken did not agree to take a lesser contract.

Um, because, you know, if you go and you look at their, their run there, um, you know, Carlos Correa, that ended up being an inspired pick.

Uh, then Mark Appel, that was a terrible pick.

Y- and, you know, they were able to sign him, uh, with that.

That was the year after, what, he had gone, like, eighth and hadn't signed with Pittsburgh, a really weird thing for him to go first.

And it, it just comes down to Brady Aiken because by not signing Brady Aiken, the next year they get Alex Bregman.

That extra money allows them to get Daz Cameron.
