Mo Ensberg And The Astros Exchange Arbitration Figures

Morgan Ensberg and the Astros exchanged arbitration figures yesterday.
Morgan wants 4.2 mill.
The Astros want to pay him 3.4 mill.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm…

Mark Texiera (1st base) got 2 years at 15.4 mill – and Tex don’t hit worth a lick out of the Ballpark.

Marcus Giles got 3.8 mill and his numbers weren’t near as good as Ensberg’s.

I think that Mo would be most likely to get the higher figure at a hearing, and I’ll bet that the Organization will settle. I thought they might could be thinking of more than a 1 year contract, but I see Lidge only got 1 year, and

I’ll bet at this point that Mo will also only get 1 year. If he has another year like last year, he might could get a good 8 – 10 mill next year.

And so far, all quiet along the Baggy Front….

    Aw, shoot, I bet it settles out at a nice round $4M.
    Or maybe they split the diff. But fer sure they’l settle this pretty quick, I’ll bet.
    If Mo stays healthy all year, his numbers could be scary good. The more I think about this team, the more I get intrigued. Don’t you? This could be a breakout season for more than one player, and a leadership transition year for others (bags/bidge over to Lance/Mo).
