MLB Immaculate Grid Answers August 30: Which Astros players have also played for the Giants?
Nine-time All-Star Carlos Beltrán is the first name that comes to mind for the Astros - Giants intersection of today’s MLB Immaculate Grid.
The former outfielder’s stint at either club was brief. He had two spells with the Astros, both lasting just one season - first in 2004 and then again in 2017. His second stint, however, earned him the most prestigious accomplishment of his career - a World Series ring.
After his first spell with the Astros, Beltrán went on to play seven seasons for the New York Mets. In the summer of 2011, he was traded to the Giants where he spent only a few months before joining the St. Louis Cardinals the following offseason.
Texas Rangers reliever Will Smith also qualifies for this intersection. Smith played three seasons for the Giants - 2016, 2019 and 2019 - with his 2017 campaign wiped off due to Tommy John surgery. Smith then joined the Atlanta Braves, where he would stay until the summer of 2022.
He was then traded to the Astros, which turned out to be amazing timing as they went on to win the World Series - Smith’s second consecutive ring after winning baseball's holy grail in 2021 with the Braves.
