Yea pretty much.

Except Lance is an ace in the making, but I guess will be a 4 since his innings are being watched in the second half.

Yeah, it sets up the Houston rotation if they stand pat.

Next up, an OF who isn't a high K guy. Keep an eye on Upton, Parra, Cespedes, etc.

Houston could use a couple of bats, not just 1 OF.

These guys don't fit that description. I want Parra though.

Astros have 3 of the 6 pitchers with the lowest ERA in the American League now:

Parra is the guy Houston should go after.

Why not? McCullers is likely to be in the rotation for Houston for a while. I don't see why it doesn't count.

At the very least it indicates where he trends...

Very underrated player, he could be a steal at deadline.

Gomez and F. Rodriguez, starting OF and a closer, move Gregerson back into a set up role.

Yeah, Upton doesn't but Cespedes is basically league average plus a legit middle of the order bat. Parra or Gomez could happen for sure.

He is a rookie out of nowhere with ace like numbers so far.

His numbers as a rookie outpace Jose Fernandez when he was at the same spot.

Fangraphs broke down his curveball, as being one of most nasty breaking balls in the league, and most valuable as a starter. 95 mph fastball with sick movement. Changeup coming... he is an ace and wont even have a year of service time at the end of the season.

Springer will be back. Hopefully Tucker continues to improve.

Another OF isn't priority, IMO
