      Doubt the Astros care about winning this season. Tank for high draft picks to restock the farm system.

          Well actually playing for the Astros is a rookies best chance at making the big bucks later. It is easier to become the closer for the Astros and easier to start at a position. If you play well enough, then you might get traded next year. Or at least after 3 years at the bigs you will get a good contract

            Astros should be contracted too. Combine them with Rangers.

              good point, you can atleast get out there and show your stuff then you do have the best chance of making a name for yourself, other teams you wont even see the rotation

                Not a horrible strategy, has helped numerous teams before. Brutal to wait through though...

                      He went from being a good closer with prima donna commericals to now not even talked about.

                              he will not do much there IMO. I don't think we will hear many good things about him if anything this year

                                He wasn't traded, but signed as a Free Agent. I don't believe he will have any impact. Why not gamble though and take a shot?

                                  Dodgers have a very deep bullpen, doubt Wilson will even be a Sept call up..
