HBT: Jays, Astros pull off 10-player trade

It?s a special kind of trade when ten (10)(X) players change teams and Brandon Lyon is the best of the lot. But the Blue Jays and Astros did it:

  • The Astros get:?Francisco Cordero?and?Ben Francisco plus?minor leaguers?Joe Musgrove,?Asher Wojciechowski,?David Rollins?and?Carlos Perez. They also get a?player to be named later. ?Man that guy gets traded a lot.
  • The Blue Jays get:?Brandon Lyon,?J.A. Happ?and?David Carpenter

I don?t know all of those Blue Jays minor leaguers, but I can?t imagine Lyon, Happ and Carpenter rate top prospects or anything.

We?ll sift through this a bit, but my instincts tell me that this is sound and fury signifying nothing more than a lot of flotsam and jetsam shuffling.

UPDATE: Everyone can stop commenting on this trade now, because Brandon Isleib has won the day:
