I’ll withhold judgement till we know who is coming back but Trey  we’ll miss you 

(and you have to give stowers time to get to the ballpark, probably not going to arrive till late tonight/tomorrow)

You will likely be looking for traits more than top names prospect returns.

I thought the Houston cheating scandal was pretty cute when it came to making Dodgers and Yankees fans cry like children.  The cheating was bad, but...I mean, if your victims are the Yankees and Dodgers, I'm cool with it.  

Anyway, go Astros!

Plus wasn’t it confirmed that the Yankees and Red Sox did similar things?

I'm going to laugh pretty hard if it's for Whitley, I did that exact same trade on my O's franchise on MLB The Show.

Goes to show you anyone remotely approaching a payday (free agent, arbitration), it’s toodle-oo

Free agency and toodle-loo already go together for most players and teams.

Trey was one of my favorite Orioles to root for in my 25 years of being a fan.  So real, friendly and polite with the media.  I guess we are all Astros fans now. Also noting that we still play the Astros 6 or 7 more times.

What other trades did you make so we know what comes next.

I started having doubts he’d be traded but I still expected it. Still feels weird that it’s actually happening though, I almost felt shocked when I first read it…which is weird since despite my doubts, I knew it was still probably going to happen. 
 

The return is likely to be underwhelming and I’ll probably feel disappointed even though I’m expecting it.

I figure we have 15-30 minutes to guess before news starts breaking.    Whitley would be too good to be true, warts and all.

I was an Astros fan when they were in the NL.  This makes it much easier.

Knowing  MLB the Show its something like Akin, Lopez, and Odor for Soto

Their top 30 pitchers are all performing poorly beyond Hunter Brown. Whitley their #4 prospect has a 7.29 EArA in 8 starts

It's a 7.15 ERA and it is in 11.1 innings...he's coming back from an injury and hasn't pitched since 2019.  In those 11.1 innings, he has only given up 10 H, 1 HR, 4 BB and has 14Ks.  He's actually pitched pretty well in very limited action this season. 

 

I'd be happy to have him be one of the pieces coming back.

Solomon on the 40-man, Whitaker sounds like a RF string bean from Fangraphs Longenhagen's notes.

My random, uniformed guess is Dubin, Tavarez, and someone not in the top 30.
