Astros fans should be happy to know that Aubrey Huff is the newest member of the Houston Astros. The Astros agreed to send two minor leaguers to the Tampa Bay Devil Rays for Huff and a sum of cash.
Aubrey Huff should be a huge factor for the Astros run towards the NL Wild Card and NL Central Division in the second half. Huff, who has eight homers so far in 2006, started very slow for Tampa Bay and has missed a large portion of time due to injury. Huff has been playing 3B for the Rays in 2006, but can also play first and a corner outfield spot. A few years ago Huff led the Devil Rays in homeruns with 31 and was one considered one of the top young hitters in the game. Astros fans should hope Huff can regain his All Star form in Hoston because he could be a difference maker in their quest for the playoffs.
