2025 Hypothetical Astros Trades Thread

Their hypothetical of Pena for Duran and a lesser prospect was ridiculous, but a Pena to Boston trade isn’t insane. Maybe:

Red Sox get:
SS Jeremy Pena
RP Bryan Abreu

Astros get:
OF Jarren Duran
P Connelly Early
IF Mikey Romero
P Marcus Phillips

Astros restock their farm system and get a controllable LH OF who can lead off. Red Sox bolster their infield and bullpen.

Astros roster:
OF Duran
3B Paredes
DH Alvarez
SS Correa
2B Altuve
C Diaz
1B Walker
OF Sanchez/Meyers platoon
OF Cole
Bench: Matthews, Allen, Salazar
SP: Brown, Imai, Javier, Burrows, Arrighetti, Weiss
RP: Hader, King, Pearson, McCullers, Okert, Munoz, De Los Santos
Optioned: Gordon, Early, Blubaugh, Alexander, France, Ullola, Murray, Sousa, Whitcomb, Dezenzo, Smith
60-Day IL: Blanco, Wesneski, Walter, McCullers
