Here's what a trade for Zack Greinke could look like for Astros
ASTROS ROUNDTABLE
24 July 2019
As the trade deadline approaches, many fans are ready for the Astros to add another arm to the pitching staff.
One pitcher that may be available is Diamondbacks starter, Zack Greinke.
ESPN 97.5's A.J. Hoffman, Barry Laminack, and Joel Blank discuss the possibility of Greinke joining the Astros, and whether Houston should trade for him.
In a move that sent shockwaves through the NBA, the Houston Rockets have pulled off a blockbuster trade for Kevin Durant, acquiring the superstar forward from the Phoenix Suns. The deal comes at a steep price—Houston parts ways with Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, the 10th pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, and five second-rounders.
In this episode, we react to the stunning trade and break down what it means for the Rockets’ future. Is parting with Green and Brooks too much, or a necessary step toward contention? We examine the risks tied to Durant’s age and injury history, and what losing a defensive anchor like Brooks means for a young, evolving roster.
We also dive into what KD brings to the table—his scoring ability, his contract situation, and whether he can truly be "the guy" on a team that’s looking to take the next step. And if he can’t stay healthy come playoff time… was the gamble even worth it?
The Rockets just pushed all their chips in. The question now: did they bet on the right hand?
Be sure to watch the video below as ESPN Houston's John Granato and Lance Zierlein share their thoughts on the newest addition to the Rockets.
