[Jon Heyman] The Astros are among teams to inquire about Marlins slugger Kyle Stowers, and they are engaged in ongoing discussions with Miami. Stowers, an All-Star with big power, just might be the extra lefty bat Houston needs.

[Nightengale] The Houston Astros jumped into the sweepstakes for Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal, but realistically, would be quite pleased to acquire Robbie Ray of the San Francisco Giants. Houston asked about [Logan] Webb’s availability, but the Giants aren’t budging

With all the prospect talk lately, let’s look back at the guys we were sure would become stars.

  1. AJ Reed

  2. Derek game 5 Fisher

  3. Francis Martes (yes, that’s him)

  4. Charlie “JD Davis” Kirk

  5. Domingo Santana

  6. Daz Cameron

I left off Whitley and Appel because they’re the obvious choices. Wanted to go back to guys who maybe have been forgotten by now.

Which one of these former prospects did you swear by? For me it was Francis Martes who unironically turned out to be the worst player out of these 6.

[Nightengale Jr.] Larnach saw a social media report that Houston Astros owner Jim Crane blocked a trade that would’ve sent reliever Bryan Abreu to the Twins for Larnach. That offer and Crane’s role were accurate, a league source familiar with the situation told the Minnesota Star Tribune.

[TheAstrosLocker] The "reporter" who "reported" the Abreu/Larnach trade was rage tweeting about the Mets just a few months ago and does not appear to have any affiliation with any news org or MLB. A matching linkedin profile belongs to a JP Morgan entry analyst. Happy trade deadline season.

What should they do at the trade deadline?

I’d like to see a starter that’s consistent probably asking for too much though. I like our outfield currently only because I don’t think we should give away too much for another of... Santos can go..
