MLB.com's Brian McTaggart has more information about the transaction from Astros' general manager Jeff Luhnow -

I think it really began with the desire to have the deal be good for both sides, good for the player in that the player is given some security and the player knows how important he is to the organization. And good for the organization in that we now have cost control over a player that has a chance to be pretty special and that we believe is going to be a good big league player and potentially a great big league player.

Now one more tweet that might leave you asking "Bud, tell us how you really feel?" -

Sorry but this Singleton deal is terrible. Wish the Jon listened to the union and not his agent.

Seems a bit much, but what's your take?
