Finally, and I mean finally, the Astros made the blockbuster trade that we fans have been waiting for all off-season. After weeks and even sometimes days of wearying news of superstar basketball players and unsurprisingly disappointing football teams, the Astros have finally reclaimed the front page of the Houston sports landscape.
On Sunday, Jan 6, both teams announced that the Astros have traded corner infielder J.D. Davis and minor leaguer Cody Bohanek to the New York Mets. In return, Houston received three minor leaguers - second baseman Luis Santana, outfielder Ross Adolph, and catcher Scott Manea.
