The Houston Astros may be paving the way for a potential slugging option at first base with a minor league trade on Tuesday. Per Francys Romero of beisbolfr.com, the Astros acquired Milwaukee Brewers first base prospect Wes Clarke late Tuesday night. The return wasn’t immediately reported and the Astros had not formally announced the trade. Clarke has never played in the Majors, but he has a track record of slugging in the minor leagues with Milwaukee.
