I wonder what the Astros could have gotten for trading Whitley at the 2018 deadline after his suspension.

The Astros try the majority of their pitchers as starters in the minors. Most projections didn't see it panning lut for him or that it would take a while. Also if you seriously think Chas should have been a top 100 prospect you can't be helped.

Alright fine you roped me into responding to this terrible post. Abreu is a reliever. Starters typically are the only ones making top 100 list. Luis Garcia was ranked #67 in the 2021 list by Keith Law. Javier was never ranked in by any of the major sites for their top 50 or 100. Valdez wasn't ranked by any of the major sites. Chas wasn't ranked by any of the major sites. Urquidy wasn't ranked by Law ever and snuck onto the Baseball prospectus rankings in 2020 at #82. On the other hand calling him integral is a stretch. In the regular season he was below league average with a 98 ERA+. In the postseason his only appearance was in the McCullers blow up game IIRC. Your one victory lap would be on Pena. Baseball America had him ranked #72 in 2022 and Prospectus had him #100, #82 and #16 in the last 3 years. Law only ranked #2 on the Astros only prospects list in 2022.

I was just looking at the Braves recent drafts and it had some interesting info. They have been super pitcher heavy since 2020 with iirc 8/9 of their top picks being pitchers. This last 3 it was 3 hs pitchers. I wonder if that was more of trying to fill holes in their system like the Angels or something else.- 2023 Official Astros World Champs Offseason Thread
Like we need a new closer because Pressly isn't good enough- 2023 Official Astros World Champs Offseason Thread
People would probably say the same thing if LAD inked Cody Bellinger to a big deal a couple years ago. Did you just mix up Pete Alonso and Nolan Arenado?- 2023 Official Astros World Champs Offseason Thread

I would have also bet a few years ago that Whitley was in our rotation by 2022 so you never know.- 2023 Official Astros World Champs Offseason Thread
If I had the info I would have posted it. That's all that's been reported.- 2023 Official Astros World Champs Offseason Thread
This Cuban pitcher apparently had an agreement with the Astros fro $700k. It obviously fell apart.- 2023 Official Astros World Champs Offseason Thread
Reading comprehension failed- 2023 Official Astros World Champs Offseason Thread
I believe the White Sox have a good amount of Cubans in their farm system but maybe my memory is exaggerating it.- 2023 Official Astros World Champs Offseason Thread
Well Framber, Javier, Garcia and Valdez don't really apply to this topic- 2023 Official Astros World Champs Offseason Thread
I really wanted Griffen Canning in that draft. At least he has made it to the majors as an innings eater. Jeter Downs who got DFA'd recently was also a high pick in that draft.- 2023 Official Astros World Champs Offseason Thread
