Astros have contacted the Mets about Edwin Diaz.
The Astros have spoken to the Pirates about Josh Bell (which makes no sense to me).
The Astros have asked about Luis Castillo and were told not now.
These are the ones I have heard about over the last few weeks.
Tucker has surprisingly been the player teams have had interest in along with Abreu.

I like Luis Castillo here even if he’s struggling so far this season. |

I think Bell is a great player and much younger then yuli.
If you do that trade you gotta get something good for Yuli.
There were also talks that atleast 5 teams have asked about Yuli

With as weak as our farm system is at the moment and no 1st round pick for another year, I really think we should be careful on who we're willing to give up... I'd rather be mediocre for a year or two than completely kill our farm system like we did under the last few years with Drayton.

You are right about the farm system and we don't need to deal any core players. What we need to be doing is working on re-signing George and Yuli. |

Springer is doooo dooo.
Sorry just has to be said. He isn't worth 20+ million. And won't be able to handle the CF postion much longer.
He will get an offer that over pays him to leave the Astros.
Yuli's age is a big ouch but a team wanting to make a run and needing just that little bit of a nudge to get them over the top. Yuli is your guy.
If you where to pull off Josh Bell then you have to try and get something of decent value on Yuli and not just hold onto him
Josh James and a Prospect to be named later would be enough to get Bell at the moment
Pirates rotation is in damage control with terrible injurys and poor play. James needs a new home. And he probubly would excel in a situation where he can start everyday and try and improve on himself

Altuve has been worth every penny and probably more until this season. Springer can't even stay on the field consistently enough to be worth close to what Altuve is getting. There is a reason why Altuve is likely a HoFer and Springer is not. |

Springer has been on the field as much as your little hero. And, you always ignore the FACT that the Astros offense suffers when George is out and has often improved without Jose's double play balls and base running blunders. I have never seen George bunt with two outs the bottom of the 9th when he represented the tying run.......Altuve is the dumbass who did that. Jose is a good player but he is dumber than dirt and is much LESS valuable to the lineup than George. He would much easier to replace in the lineup than Springer. Jose wasn't worth half what we paid him last season. He spent too much time on the IL and his production was way down when he played. He is not worth as much to this team as Springer. |

Bell hasn't done a thing and the Pirates need pitching badly they like the kid Phillip Evans. They believe he willbe there future every day 1b. He hot injured and that kinda derailed things alittle bit but hey it happens. Bell like James may need a change of scenery. It could do wonders for both. Don't be a homer on guys u fantasize about. cough cough Marisnick cough cough Springer won't be back with the Astros after this year. Not because the Astros don't want him. Its because he wants out and wants that money. He will go to the highest bidder. |

Season after rookie year: Altuve: 148 Games Springer: 133 Games (And has already missed games this year.) I know you think "HRs make George be best ballplayer" but there is a lot more to it. |

It is a matter of record that our offense sputters without George.......losing Jose doesn't hurt that much. in fact,we did ;better last year when Altuve was out. We pulled away in the division. |

I love both Springer and Altuve. But people always fight about which one is the most valuable player on the team. They answer is neither......Alex Bregman is the most valuable player on the team, followed by Verlander.

Astros have contacted the Mets about Edwin Diaz. The Astros have spoken to the Pirates about Josh Bell (which makes no sense to me). The Astros have asked about Luis Castillo and were told not now. These are the ones I have heard about over the last few weeks. Tucker has surprisingly been the player teams have had interest in along with Abreu. I am not very intreasted in Diaz. |
