Mandatory credit: Mitch Strunger-Imagn images The Houston Astros added an option on the public service field on Wednesday, acquiring Ramon Urias of the Baltimore Orioles, according to several media reports.
Baltimore would in return receive the right -hander of the minor league.
Urias, 31, has spent his entire career in major six -year leagues with Orioles. He won a Gold Glove Award in 2022 in the third goal, where he saw the most action, but he also has a wide experience in the second goal and the Copstrame, the time for the first goal.
The native of Mexico reaches .248 with a basic percentage of .300, a percentage of strokes of .388, eight circuits and 34 points produced in 77 games this season. During his career, he has an oblique bar line .259 / .324 / .404 with 47 circuits and 205 points produced in 506 games.
Palmer, 20, posted a 2-0 file and an MPM of 2.13 in 13 games (eight departures) for the class in Fayetteville this year. The Astros selected it in the 19th round of the 2024 draft of a junior college in Oklahoma.

For those wondering, Urias played 108 games with Baltimore last season, hit .269 with 11 homers. Solid defender at 2B and 3B. Can also play SS in a pinch. Versatility is his main asset here, gives Espada more lineup flexibility specially with injury concerns.
Everyone saying this is good move but did anyone actually WATCH Urias play last year?? His defense was inconsistent at best and his bat disappeared after May. This aint it chief.
Pretty solid depth move actually. Not flashy but practical.
Wait so the Astros got Urias FROM the Orioles right?? This is huge for our infield depth man. Been needing someone who can play multiple positions and Urias fits perfect.
LOL yeah cause what we really needed was ANOTHER infielder 😂 Maybe focus on pitching next time???
Meh. Wake me up when we sign someone who actually moves the needle.
Another mediocre pickup smh… Urias batting average isnt even that great and we’re acting like this solves our problems? Front office need to wake up and get us some real talent not leftovers from other teams.
Oh great, another bench player to add to our collection. I’m sure this will definitely put us over the top for the championship. Definitely. No doubt at all. 🙄
Urias and Altuve in the same infield? We’re gonna have the shortest double play combo in baseball history lmaooo 😂😂 No disrespect but you know its true
So we trading away prospects for this or what?? The article dont say nothing bout what we gave up and thats the most important part tbh. If we gave up anyone good this is highway robbery by Baltimore.
I actually dont mind this signing at all. Urias brings veteran presence and he’s proven he can handle the pressure in playoff races with Baltimore. People forgeting the Orioles was competitive last few years. He know what it takes to win and thats valueable for young guys on our roster.
