The Houston Astros made a damn-near perfect landing when the MLB trade deadline came to pass. It was soft, eventful and was the object of affection of any team that didn’t have the guts to make a move like this team did.
They were able to add Zack Greinke as the centerpiece along with Aaron Sanchez and Joe Biagini to shore up their pitching depth. Both Sanchez and Biagini were solid in their respective debuts. These were fine additions to the team and although Greinke’s first appearance as a member of the Houston Astros last night was less than desired, I’d expect that to be more a one-off than something we’d expect out him regularly.
