Astros acquire Yusei Kikuchi

Great start for Kikuchi but 6.50 era the last two months. Great trade for Toronto.

 

Yeah I get that. It is steep for a rental of a below average SP.

 

16 earned runs in 14 1/3 innings in his last 3 starts.

He should fit right in.

Horrible.

 

Ben needs to donate whatever to get his brother back pitching...

 

This is Crane pressuring Brown to get a veteran starter. No matter the cost.

 

It’s bullshit. He’s been no better lately than Dubin.

 

No way Kikachi makes our playoff rotation.

 

He could be a solid weapon out of the pen but yeah this trade makes no sense

 

Maybe so but Kikuchi is ass hole.

 

Just wait as in there’s another deal coming soon or what?

 

Yusei Kikuchi another Mike Fiers.

He likely won't make the Playoff Roster.

 

This was such a steep price for a 2 month rental tbh. Surprised no other teams had something better to offer for the same price!

 

....

 

Feels like Dana Brown lost his Temper trading Jake Bloss away.

Really feels like Jake Bloss will turn into a Ace Starter for the Blue Jays.

Just like watching Josh Hader blossom at Milwaukee and Mike Fiers snitch on the Astros, Carlos Gomez broke down.

 

Not sure we get or are giving two more prospects

 

You don’t think…. Vladdy…. Do you???

 

Sounds like giving up 2. WTH?

 

Ranks 16th in K’s in MLB. Other than that, 4.75 ERA (6.87 ERA in his last 12), 1.34 WHIP

 

Any chance Dana Brown could be worse than GM Bill O’Brien?

 

He’ll be the lefty out of the pen too give up a monster walk off HR.
