Summary
The Astros are in a precarious position after the All-Star break, four games back in the AL West with playoff hopes slipping. With the trade deadline looming on August 3rd, the front office must decide: sell or buy? Pitching is their top priority, and recent moves like trading Lance McCullers Jr. signal they’re reshaping their roster — but with other teams also hunting for arms, the bidding could get fierce. Winning now is critical — a winning streak could give them the leverage to make bold moves and turn their season around.
