Houston Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow made an interesting observation when he coyly hinted during a radio interview that the team may not only pursue David Price, but that the team may have an inside track on the superstar starting pitcher.
Reports indicate that the Detroit Tigers, after reading the writing on the wall, have decided to become sellers at the trade deadline, giving every indication that Price likely will be dealt. With the surprising Astros in need of starting pitching and armed with depth in the minor league system, there’s a strong possibility that Houston and Detroit could become trade partners, with the talented and heavily coveted Price being the central figure.
