Trade talks between Astros and Marlins for Sandy Alcantara heat up
The Houston Astros are believed to be pursuing multiple positions this MLB trade deadline to help bolster their lineup. They look like a strong World Series candidate as they lead the AL West with a 62-47 record. Reports have said that Houston is looking to add a left-handed bat for their right-handed-heavy lineup, as well as a starting pitcher, before Thursday's deadline. Teams are running out of time to make moves, and it's been reported that the Astros have reached out to the Miami Marlins for their former Cy Young Award-winning pitcher. Astros writer Michael Schwab took to X on Wednesday night, saying, "The Astros are in talks with Miami about trading for starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara, per people familiar with the matter. Nothing is imminent, but both sides are serious and interested." Alcantara, 29, has been seeing his name floated around in trade rumors for multiple months leading up to the trade deadline. The Marlins starter was the unanimous NL Cy Young Award winner in 2022 after finishing the season with a 14-9 record, 2.28 ERA, and 1.07 WHIP in 32 starts. The following year, Alcantara came down with a torn UCL and underwent Tommy John surgery. He missed the entire 2024 season and has struggled to find the same success. In 2025, Alcantara started 21 games for the Marlins, totaling a 6-9 record, 6.36 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, and 81 strikeouts in 109 innings. If Houston can put together a deal to land Alcantara, they would also bring in his expensive contract, which has him getting paid $34.6 million through the 2026 season. His contract has a club option linked to it for the 2027 season.
