For the most part, the Houston Astros have survived the 2025 season without any sour grapes over the Kyle Tucker trade. Isaac Paredes is a natural fit, playing half his games with the Crawford Boxes in left field. Cam Smith, despite his rookie struggles, should be a part of the long-term core moving forward, and even Hayden Wesneski flashed some potential before going down with Tommy John surgery. Meanwhile, the injury weirdness that Astros fans know all too well has plagued Tucker's second half with the Cubs. Seems like a win for the Astros, but that could change this offseason.
