Back on February 4th, 2013, the Astros made the first of two trades involving Jed Lowrie and the Athletics. Yes, there have been two trades between Houston and Oakland involving Lowrie, who recently signed with the Mets this offseason. The first trade between the two clubs back in early 2013 saw the Astros acquire the following players: Chris Carter, Max Stassi, and Brad Peacock. No, this isn’t a trade review, but rather a post hyping about Peacock as we look forward to Spring Training.
To echo the title of this post, we’d be wise to pay close attention to Peacock this year.
