Pena is a good defensive SS, Walker is a good defensive 1B, and Bregman is a good defensive 3B.  If Bregman comes back, it'd be nuts to move any of them.

 

Yep, and a lot of the errors Pena had last year were throwing that likely would not have been with a better defensive 1B. Pena is an elite SS and the Astros would be stupid to move him to anywhere else on the field.

Happy Paul Rudd GIF by Saturday Night Live

 

The Astros have asked veteran reliever Ryan Pressly to approve a trade to the Cubs, multiple sources told MLB.com on Friday. Pressly has yet to waive his no-trade clause despite a report that a trade was “on the verge” of being completed Thursday night.

What are expectations on the return?

Just being thankful they are paying and thankful Pressly waives no-trade?

or are we expecting some actual players in return?

Move Pena to left field and let Bregman play short.

Or keep them at there positions and trade Paredes for a good outfielder. I still think that this is a ploy by Boras to get other teams off high center. If it is and Bregman signs elsewhere. He will be booed by the Astros fans and Rome may not be safe walking around the halls of MM ... DYKE park during games. Im talking about type Beltran hate.

one of the best astros ever ....

If this is it for Ryan Pressly in an #Astros uniform, it was a hell of a run.

Over 6.5 seasons in Houston, Pressly had a 2.81 ERA with 411 K in 333 innings and picked up 111 saves.

He also had a 2.78 ERA with 14 saves in the postseason, which is the 5th most postseason saves in MLB history. 

The deal to acquire him from the Twins will go down as one of the best trades in Astros history.

They aren’t going to trade Pressly without getting assurances first that Bregman takes the deal on the table which is clearly the best he’s going to get at this point.

The problem with that is that Paredes projects to have more value playing his home games in Houston than anywhere else in the league. I don't think the Astros can possibly win that trade.

I'm warming to the idea of Altuve in LF, as crazy as it seems on the surface. It does not make the outfield any worse defensively, but sliding Paredes to 2nd and putting Bregman back at 3rd significantly improves the infield defense. And when your two best pitchers are known for groundballs, maybe that's more important at this point.

Altuve on perhaps moving to LF to accomodate Alex: "For Alex, I'd do whatever. Like I said, he's one of the best players in the whole league and definitely one of the best players on the team. We want him to stay, so whatever I have to do for him to stay, I'm willing to do it."

During a panel with Jeremy Peña and Jose Altuve, a young fan  asked Altuve what his favorite postseason home run is.

"I have a lot, but my favorite is all the home runs Jeremy Peña hit in the 2022 playoffs."

I was actually wish Murfree was still on the roster
