Houston's general manager Dana Brown made clear that while he is willing to listen to offers, the Astros currently do not intend to trade ace Framber Valdez.
Despite trade rumors circulating at the Winter Meetings, the Astros' management appears determined to retain Valdez, emphasizing his significant role in their upcoming pitching rotation.
The general manager acknowledged that while few players are untouchable, Valdez is not currently among those they plan to trade unless presented with an irresistible offer.
Valdez, projected to earn nearly $18 million in arbitration, is likely to become a free agent soon, but the Astros weigh his potential departures against their competitive goals.
