Consider that history has been made today Houston Astros’ fans.
What’s the milestone?
For the first time in the Jeff Luhnow-era, the Astros will be headed to an arbitration hearing to settle a contract dispute.
Luhnow has been with the Astros since 2012 so three straight seasons of not having to participate in such an event is nothing short of remarkable.
But as with many streaks, they must come to an end and that’s certainly the case for the upcoming season.
Neither the Astros nor Jason Castro are budging in terms of settling a small gap of what one side feels they deserve (Castro) and what the other side feels they’re worth (Astros).
