I think we over state the value they got for Kikuchi. They got a future back end of the rotation starter, who was rushed through the minors, 25 year old OF who has struggled at the MLB level and a 26 year old utility player who hadn't played in the big leagues. None of these guys are star players, these are replacement level players. Also most people will say that that the Astros overpaid for Kikuchi.
There isn't going to be any future star players in the return for Bo or Vladdy.
