"Ed Wade Astros GM playing Braves (Wren) vs. Phillies (Amaro) in text book fashion... former GM's Gillick, Schuerholz should be proud"
"Astros not going down the road of negotiations this far w/PhilsBraveswithout intent of eventually closing a deal...seat belts please"
"RUMOR ONLY FROM NL SCOUT: Jarred Cosart, Singleton and Trevor May is asking price for Hunter Pence.. that's a hefty asking price...."
Re: Astros budging on Pence
The inevitable appears to be the Phillies, with maybe a Cosart and Dominic Brown package. Not bad haul if that ends up being the case
Re: Astros budging on Pence
Astros looking for more specs, wanting to add a third team in the phillies deal to trade brown to for more specs.
Re: Astros budging on Pence
Yankees with Betances and someone
Re: Astros budging on Pence
Supposedly an announcement is due any moment on Pence becoming a Phillie.
Re: Astros budging on Pence
Cosart, Singleton, and two PBNL
Re: Astros budging on Pence
Just saw one report that says Trevor May could be the other guy.
Re: Astros budging on Pence
The Phillies just got a whole lot better and the Astros have some nice pieces for the future. I thought the Astros were wanting some MLB close prospects but I guess not. Good trade for the Phillies and I'm not looking forward to seeing them next week now.
