Astros acquired RHP Juan Abreu, RHP Paul Clemens, LHP Brett Oberholtzer and OF Jordan Schafer from the Braves for OF Michael Bourn and cash. |
Abreu, 26, turned in a 2.25 ERA and 68/27 K/BB ratio in 48 innings of relief this season at Triple-A Gwinnett. He's far from a top prospect, but the right-hander could rise quickly to Houston and may eventually become a quality big league setup man. |
