While most of the scuttlebutt around the Houston Astros has been their pursuit of pitching, they have needed a left-handed outfielder for a long time. Unfortunately, it did not seem as though there were a lot of great solutions at this year's trade deadline to solve that problem. However, with a couple hours to go before the trade deadline, Dana Brown closed the deal on a trade for Varsho, but it is costing Houston Spencer Arrighetti to get it done. The return will be starting pitcher Spencer Arrighetti. Sure, they added the lefty bat they needed to add in Varsho, but he is a rental outfielder with a .682 OPS this season.
