Astros acquire Yusei Kikuchi

Yikes. That's all I can say if true.

 

WHAT THE HELL!!!!

 

U meant to raped right? Or same same?

 

Toronto needed to get another son of an Astro to make up for Cavan... unreal if there's not more to this.

 

I would root for a failed physical… and I’m partial to pitching.

 

You’re telling me the best pitcher you could get is a rental of kikuchi for Jake bliss, loperfido, and will Wagner?
Get this ****ing clown out of here

 

The fact that they threw in Wagner who can probably scrape out a decent utility career on top of this is just chefs kiss.

 

There has to be Vlad Jr. coming back

 

So did Astros offer this package to other teams? Surely could have got Flaherty, Fedde(before he was traded) or Taillon instead.

 

F uck this team.

 

And now we created a hole in OF since Tucker is apparently made of glass…

 

This is seriously terrible. Brown should be fire, and Crane needs to fcking back off the front office if this is all there is. Giving up a promising pitcher and 2 promising prospect for a pitcher rental that has been terrible? No I can't accept this is all there is to it.

 

Graped is used for YouTube/internet purposes.

They actual word gets flagged.

 

This is the haul you give up for Skubal not a rental.

 

Can't wait for them to double down and give him some stupid contract in the offseason (to justify their dumbass trade).

"We don't feel he's a rental. We feel he has many good years ahead of him."

 

Spoiler

 

I'm sorry, but WTF?

Bloss isn't a big loss, IMO, but to give up extra when you aren't a prospect rich team for a guy that may not even pitch for you in the in playoffs?

 

w.t.f

for a rental?

 

It seems like the dark days ahead are going to be very dark.
