Michael Brantley signing with the Houston Astros is the big news from the start of this week.
That makes sense, given the Cleveland Indians seemingly could have matched the offer given by the Astros for the veteran outfielder. Alas, the Indians must have valued him at a different level.
At the same time of Brantley’s departure, Rajai Davis decided to sign a minor league contract with the New York Mets.
The fit is there given Mickey Callaway is the manager and Rajai shows up as a low-cost, low-risk move.
