Happ and Singleton would be sent to the Astros for Oswalt
Sources tell ESPN’s Jayson Stark that a deal with the Houston Astros is in place and everything is agreed upon. Now, we wait for Roy Oswalt to waive his no-trade clause so that he can officially become a member of the Philadelphia Phillies.
According to the source, the Phillies would send left-handed starter JA Happ to the Astros along with two other players. It would be Single-A first baseman John Singleton and another prospect.
Happ is a nice pitcher who has spent most of this season on the DL. Still, he’s been incredible since early 2009 and barely missed out on Rookie of the Year honors. Oh, and he comes cheap.
Getting Singleton as well would make this a nice deal for the Astros, who aren’t competing for anything any time soon, so they don’t need the 32-year old Oswalt. However, a source tells Stark that the team would be covering $12 million of Oswalt’s salary through next year. He is owed about $5 million for the rest of this year and another $16 million next year.
Now, we wait for Roy.
