Astros Nearing Deal With Phillies
According to Ken Rosenthal, the Astros are about to part ways with Hunter Pence in exchange for Jonathan Singleton, Jarred Cosart and two unnamed prospects. That is two players who were in Baseball America’s Top 100 before the season and, though Domonic Brown and Vance Worley are not currently included in the deal, can immediately reinvigorate a piss poor Astros farm system.
It may not be a Mark Teixeira to the Braves, but it is probably one of the closest in terms of sheer prospect value.
It now makes so much sense why the Astros need to hold on to Clint Barmes: who else would the team market around (Jose Altuve excluded for some bizarre reason)?
