The Astros and Athletics have agreed on the following trade. After acquiring Tatis, the Astros decided to go after one of the best Ace SPs in baseball in Cole. Cole's contract is high, but the Astros offset it by moving Gray in the deal. We've now dealt some of the spec capital, but have a couple significant pieces to anchor the team going forward. Thanks for the negotiations. Oakland to confirm.
