The trade of Luis Valbuena opens third base up for baseball's top prospect, Kris Bryant. Likely will arrive sometime in May, if not sooner.

Astros got trade raped 2 times in a week. Has to be a record

Great deal for both teams. Lead off CF with decent OBP was a huge missing piece for the Cubs.
Astros get two guys that can help out the big league club immediately

Wish we could have gotten more for Fowler.
Oh well he was gone after this season no matter what anyway. I guess it's an ok deal.

Damn. Love Fowler

What if they win this year like in Back to the Future

It's a pretty good deal for the Astros in my opinion. Dexter Fowler is a good hitter with a good OBP, but he gets injured way too often, his defense is mediocre, and he wasn't going to be an Astro after this year so might as well get some value for him. Luis Valbuena can and should end up starting at 3B since Matt Dominguez is not very good, and Dan Straily should be able to crack the starting rotation immediately. Valbuena and Straily both have great potential and if they play up to it, it will be a great deal for us.
