From Reddit:

Houston Astros traded 1B Tyler White to Los Angeles Dodgers for RHP Andre Scrubb.

Houston Astros traded CF Tony Kemp to Chicago Cubs for C Martin Maldonado.

Houston Astros traded OF Derek Fisher to Toronto Blue Jays for RHP Aaron Sanchez and RHP Joe Biagini (Other pieces may be involved)

Houston Astros traded 1B/OF Seth Beer, RHP J.B. Bukauskas, RHP Corbin Martin and IF Josh Rojas to Arizona Diamondbacks for Zack Greinke and cash considerations ($24 million). (Other pieces maybe involved, though unlikely).

 

Does not include whatever we got for Stassi from LAA. 

EDIT: Also saw online it may have been Brady Rogers, not Josh Rojas.

Rose on intentional talk keeps saying we didn't have to give up Preston Tucker.  I remember back in the dark days he was one of the guys that gave me hope.

It's getting thin.  On the hitter side we still have Toro, Dawson, Lee and Brewer from this year's draft, and Nova but he's pretty far away.

yes, but where are these guys going to play? Most are blocked for the next 3-4 years. When you have a core like the Astros, you got to be flipping prospects for MLB talent.

Luhnow is a fucking wizard, and Crane is the owner we have dreamed of.

Think if we had Crane as owner instead of the Baylor Baptist rape apologist fuckwad known as Drayton McLane back in Killer B era. Fuck Drayton, fuck Tim Purpura and fuck brick, red and open star logo hats and unis and finally FUCK TAL'S HILL. Just from a fan perspective when it comes to stuffing my fat face and enjoying MMP, Crane has been my hero with adding Shake Shack, Plucker's, Torchy's and getting rid of Tal's Hill. Finally, FUCK THE MCNAIRS AND THE TEXANS. GO STROS!!

Roundtable Reaction to the Astros Blockbuster Trade for Zach Grienke:

  Quote
As if that wasn’t enough, the Astros further bolstered their pitching by adding right-handers Aaron Sanchez and Joe Biagini from the Blue Jays in exchange for outfielder Derek Fisher, who did not figure into Houston’s long-term plans. In short, it was a tour de force on a day in which two other World Series contenders, the Yankees and Dodgers, accomplished virtually nothing.

That was a bold and smart deadline for the Astros.  Obtained a controlled ace and the only top 100 prospect they gave up just had TJS.  I think Greinke was a fair trade but they fleeced the Jays.  Between this and the Stroman trade, I would be livid if I were a Jays fan.
