The Houston Astros smartly declined the Philadelphia Phillies' trade offer for Kyle Tucker.
During an appearance on MLB Network Radio on Friday morning , former MLB GM Jim Bowden revealed that Houston declined Philadelphia's trade proposal that would have swapped outfielder Nick Castellanos and third baseman Alec Bohm for Tucker.
While Bohm and Castellanos are both former All-Stars with two years of team control remaining, they're both flawed players as well. In the four seasons before that, though, he was worth just 0.8 total WAR, often frustrating Phillies fans with his inconsistent hitting and erratic defense.
