Astros GM Dana Brown Gives Verdict on Mike Burrow Trade

Burrows joined the Astros from the Pittsburgh Pirates after a three-team trade. Brown views the signing of the 26-year-old pitcher as "an upside play" and someone who “can be a pillar in our rotation.” The Astros, who missed the playoffs for the first time in eight years, expect Framber Valdez to leave in free agency, and want to build rotation depth.
