2015 Random Astros Trade Thread

Ha! Ain't no bargain with Chapman & Kimbrel.

Chapman is a free agent after next season - is that right?

These guys are great at what they do but $8-9-10-11+(M) for a reliever? I don't know. Obviously not my money.

Wasted effort on the F5 key today.

 

13 and 20 in their system is not 13 and 20 in ours

 

F5...lol

 

damn, we could have had Joakim Soria for this guy? In a heartbeat

Spoiler

Yikes...hopefully not AJ Reed

 

Fiers does not have a Luhnow profile at all. I don't think we are done.

 

This is underwhelming, hope they kept the good prospects.

 

Valbuena is playing 1B tonight...bye bye Jon Singleton??
