Astros hope to unlock something the Braves couldn’t with surprise bullpen signing

With recent rumors suggesting the Houston Astros were entertaining a reunion with Ryan Pressly after he was cut loose by the Chicago Cubs, the impression is that the Astros are looking for help in their bullpen during the final two months of the season. While Pressly is entertaining interest from the Minnesota Twins, the Astros are turning their attention to Enyel De Los Santos.

Mike Rodriguez was first to report that the Astros are signing De Los Santos to a Major League contract. De Los Santos was outrighted by the Braves earlier this week, so chances are they didn't stand in the way of a 29-year-old veteran landing with the Astros.
