I dont see why they would deal for Rocket when already have 40 year old Kenny Rogers dominating AL hitting right now. They have a young stud in Chris Young it seems. But they need is Ryan Drese to wake up and pitch like he did last season.
2004- Opp BA/OBP/SLG = .285/.339/.409
2005- Opp BA/OBP/SLG = .334/.390/.470
2004- K/BB = 1.69
2005- K/BB = 0.83
Hes projected to give up 40 more hits than last season (273 Hits compared to 233).
They need guys that can get quailty starts, not an ace.

The astros drafted Clemens' son. He ain't going anywhere now.
I can't see him going anywhere. He is a rent a player and for Texas, they have a great young organization that can do better than renting a player for a couple of months and giving up prospects.
He has 2 rings. Why would Rocket care about another with all things considered?

Of course he would like another but he also likes his set up with the Astros. I doubt he will push for a trade. I doubt even more anyone will want to give a lot for him.
