Yes, the last trade blew chunks. Couldn't even get a bench bat and subtracted Joey.MaxPower said:You were bemoaning the last trade. You should be happy we didn't get another round of the Dana Brown experience!EastCoastAgNc said:The Astros are done, source tells @TheAthletic. Their trade deadline haul: Yusei Kikuchi and Caleb Ferguson.

Failed to get any offensive help...great. Hope Tucker can get better.

Or they thought the could get more then at the last second they had to make a deal when they couldn't find something better.

High market price my ass, Dana just got played like a desperate fool

So...who is the next GM of the Astros? Because it can't be Dana anymore.

Why couldn't we have made this deal?
So you have a single guy who can give you a pinch hit at bat. One. Uno. Cabbage, Chas, and A. Diaz meanwhile, they're just warming the bench and getting ready for their strikeout.Beat40 said:Carantini is the bench bat dude.

Joey and Chas are the same.

Canha sucks
I think they probably had about that amount of prospects in mind for Flaherty from the outset and decide to try to get maximum value for him, so, if that fell through, they were willing to wait until the last minute.Farmer1906 said:Beat40 said:It's like there are more than one side to negotiations with differing motives and evaluations.Farmer1906 said:Wabs said:

Feels like they just overplayed their hand.

Not vs LHP.

You're assuming Leon doesn't wind up being as good as Joey.BCEDAg said:
Dana traded a left handed outfielder not named Cabbage to get Kikuchi, then fails at landing another offensive player to take his place?
Can't make this stuff up.
Source confirms: Diamondbacks acquired reliever Dylan Floro from Nationals. First: @Gambo987

The Orioles also acquire outfielder Austin Slater from the Reds, the second time he has been traded in three weeks.

If you expected major offensive help from this deadline with the farm system the Astros have, that was never, ever going to happen.tjack16 said:
This was an awful deadline. This is the weakest Astros lineup of our eight year run and we needed the most help. All we got was a 4/5 starter and a reliever who couldn't even hack it for one of our playoff competitors.
