My wife told me that Beltran was considered to be on the trading block. Not sure if it was during the season or they were looking at next season. Haven't confirmed this anywhere, you guys heard anything about this?
Beltran is a FA at the end of the season. THey acquired him from KC becuase of just that reason. The talk around the league in August was that the Astros should trade him again, for prospects, since they were out of the race.
Beltran's stock has gone through the roof, 8 HR in 9 post season games. I think the Astros will pull out all the stops to sign him. The only team that could potentially out bid them is the Yanks.
