Alex Bregman promoted!

I'll bet you my bank account that they aren't.

 

if he gets hurt tomorrow night in a meaningless game im going to lose it

 

no way they trade the next Superstar. Even if they did trade him, they better get 2 current all stars under 30 years old in return.

 

How much you got

 

They would almost certainly get elite starting pitching.... Probably from the White Sox. I have heard zero reports he is being dealt but it is odd he isn't up.

The White Sox GM earlier today said they are willing to be sellers but they want players ready to play now over lower level prospects.

Astros have long loved Jose Abreu and their love of Sale is well known. Quintana is also another highly underrated talent under team control for years.

Seems unlikely but maybe a package centered around Bregman and Reed for Abreu and Sale/Quintana is being discussed.

I just find it odd that Bregman hasn't been called up yet.

 

So much for @astrosfuture having any credibility.

He took a shot at glory and got burned.

 

The dude is 22 and a college bat. Fresno doesn't need a title. His value to the team for this season decreases each day he's in Triple A. Trade him for something big or play him in the bigs.

 

Still think they are waiting to tomorrow and dfa'ing worth. I'm sure that's been mentioned here, but I didn't take the time to look. I'd say it happens tomorrow.

 

Semi-realistic targets I would be on trading Bregman for:
Goldschmidt
Trout
Myers
Quintana
Sale
Archer

 

Trout & Sale and that's it.

 

I guess that's true...he didn't say they were calling him up tonight.

Any particular advantage to waiting till tomorrow?

 

Gives them more time to find a potential trade partner for a guy on the 40. All I can think of.

 

Only way I trade Bregman is in a deal for Sale + Abreu.

Anything less and the Astros got screwed.
