Astros acquire Cardinals castoff Tyler Greene
Tyler Greene - 2B - Houston Astros

Astros acquired INF Tyler Greene from the Cardinals for a player to be named later or cash considerations.
It's entertaining timing, given that Greene was booed by a normally friendly Busch Stadium crowd Wednesday after letting a would-be double play ball slip through his legs at second base. He's being reunited with Jeff Luhnow, who worked for the Cardinals when Greene was drafted and is now the general manager of the 'Stros. The 28-year-old has some power potential and should get regular time at shortstop.
