The Houston Astros tried to acquire Jonathan Lucroy from the Milwaukee Brewers in January, but they were not able to come to terms on a deal.

Lucroy is controllable through the 2017 season.

The 29-year-old catcher hit .264/.326/.391 in 415 plate appearances last year.

The Brewers have traded power-hitting outfielder Khris Davis to the A's for a pair of prospects, according to an ESPN.com report.

Milwaukee acquired catcher Jacob Nottingham and right-handed pitcher Bubba Derby in the deal Friday.

The 28-year-old Davis hit 27 home runs last season, 10th-most in the National League, and he batted .247 with 66 RBI in 121 games. Davis is not eligible for free agency until after the 2019 season.
