Trade to Houston Astros a 'whirlwind' for Colin Moran

Posted Aug 1, 2014
Colin Moran and his brother, Brian, exchanged text messages Wednesday afternoon, just around the time baseball's trade deadline passed. When Brian, a pitcher in the Angels organization, read his brother's club had acquired pitcher Jarred Cosart from the Astros, he passed along the news. The response came back from Colin: "I wonder who is in it?" It turned out Moran himself was a central piece. (Lower Hudson Journal News)
