Bud Norris to the Orioles for L.J. Hoes & more

[AmishDave]

Josh Hader, a LHP & a compensation pick are also going back to Houston.

Glad they got more than just Hoes for Norris....

Hader is the key piece. The Astros were smart to grab him.

Ranked, what, #5 prospect in the O's system ? Astros did well here.

 

[Austin]

O's before Hoes.

Bummed for Hader. He is a local kid from not too far outside of Baltimore. I would wager that he was more excited to play in the Baltimore organization that he will be in Houston.

Wow, starts against the 'Stros tomorrow

Ha!

Anyone else surprised to see Hoes finally traded? He has been in trade talks for a few years now it seems, hasn't he?

L.J. Hoes just flew out to CF to Adam Jones where he was in the starting lineup for the Orioles a few hours earlier...:lol:

And Hoes strikes out with bases loaded and one out in the 4th.
Starts out his Houston career 0-3 with 2 strike outs.

Hope Norris throws a no-hitter! :0)

Bummed myself as well, my son will be going to the same high school as Hader in 2 years. He went 10-0 his senior year with a 0.39 ERA. Had 2 no-hitters and 2 one-hitters.
