I could definitely see the Rays trade Yandy, but I doubt Houston would be interested... at least at the Deadline.

Fangraphs gives them a 46% chance of the postseason. Seattle is not running away with it. Houston needs a 1B bad, as Abreu is cooked.
Well, if they’re interested in buying, I hope the Rays are willing to sell. Astros are in a bad state pitching-wise though. I don’t see how they fill all their holes.
Agree they need pitching. They're in a pretty weak division. I think they'll pick up an overpriced starter for next to nothing the same way they've done in the past (Verlander twice). Civale might even be an option.
