If we are helping on the money hopefully we get a descent prospect back.

Hopefully Hunter Brown will see this clown show that Boras creates and drop his a$$.

If he would keep that throwing motion, he might be able to stay healthy.

Yep.

The torque he put on his elbow previously was brutal.

Already knew this Law.

Waiting on medicals.

Then we will find out what Pitching prospect we got back.

If that’s the guy, this is all I could find on him.

Yes, 3 diff reports on its this guy… Single A pitcher-- 20 yrs old. Again salary relief.
Now we wait for next move.

Starter in “A” ….more than a strikeout per inning.

Solid ERA 3.21

Only gave up 73 hits in 89IP……kid misses bats.

Interesting, he is from Columbia.


I’ll miss Pressly. Great clubhouse guy & teammate ftom what i read.
Everyone on Coogfans wanted Pressly gone as far back as last year , so all should be happy. :grin:

All of my favorite Astros are going to other teams. Sucks. I wouldn’t be surprised if Press has 30 saves next season.

Every Astros fan knows w/o Pressly there’s no 2022 WS victory. He was :100:

I have to think that one of our previous GMs would have pulled more than that out of the Cubs. But I’ll withhold judgment until we see how much $$ is going back to the Cubs.

Well if the Owner hadn’t tried to gather his posse n play GM for 2 mos abt 2 yrs ago, they wouldn’t be in this predicament imo.

Bello looks like a solid prospect but I agree….if we really paid 4-5 million then it should have been a top 10 prospect….and preferably a position player IMO.

He was called the “most underrated “ prospect in their system….

Honestly, this deal looks more like a favor to RP. It’s obviously not my money, but that’s not much of a salary dump, all things considered.
