The Astros' current catchers, Martin Moldanado and Jason Casto, have both struggled at the plate this season. Vazquez's current batting average of .281 puts him well ahead of Moldanado (.173) and Castro (.115).

Enmanuel Valdez and Wilyer Abreu will bring a youthful injection to the Boston farm system. Valdez has had a breakout season in the minors. The 23-year-old infielder is currently hitting .327 with 21 homeruns and 77 RBIs this season, between Double-A and Triple-A. Abreu, also 23, has batted .249 with 15 homeruns and 55 RBIs through 89 games, with Double-A Corpus Christi. Poll : Which team won this trade?
