    And Greinke is batting 271 with 3 dingers and an OPS of 883 this year with 48 AB's Never know in the NL park when that might pay off.

    Surprised by Beer. He's going to be able to hit, but didn't think an NL team would want him enough that Luhnow couldn't switch him out for someone else. Like deal. Hope Astros get some cash back.

    I'm good giving up lots of prospects given that it gets us at least 2 more years of Greinke and its not just a rental

    Arizona did well...... but if I told you that you could get Grienke without losing Whitley, Tucker or Abreu.... you would have been thrilled.

    Yep. Hope so too, all I’ve read so far is AD not paying much of ZG’s salary. Hope it’s wrong.

    Still stoked no matter what.

    I wonder if the Astros waited until the last possible second to get this deal done in order to prevent the Yankees from having time to react

    I totally forgot but this dude is a stud hitter for a pitcher. Will absolutely make a difference against Dodgers.

    I’ve been thinking the same and told some friends that. Not just astros but other teams as well. Guess JL just better than everyone else.

    Go Stros!!
