The Houston Astros are one of the clear winners of the trade deadline thanks to a masterful performance by general manager Dana Brown. The lineup has been transformed with the new additions, but while the Carlos Correa deal gets the most fanfare, a different new acquisition stands to be the most impactful.
For the majority of the season, the performance of lefty-swinging Astros left much to be desired, leading the team to seek help from that side of the plate. Help is exactly what they got in lefty-swinging outfielder Jesús Sanchez, and it didn't cost them all that much.
