Houston Astros: Do the Astros need to buy-out of Chad Qualls contract?

Chad Qualls broke into baseball ten years ago with the Houston Astros and was able to take part in the 2005 World Series run out of the bullpen. A decade later in his second season with the Astros after returning to his original team, Qualls was left off the American League Division Series roster versus the Kansas City Royals. Was this omission a foreshadowing of what the future that Qualls holds with the Astros or was it solely about the matchups versus the Royals?

Qualls had an up and down season in 2015, but at times he can be very dominating.
