Astros pitcher Roy Oswalt asking for trade

by Eli Greenspan on May 21, 2010 7:00 PM EDT

The Houston Chronicle is reporting that the Astros pitcher has indeed requested a trade from the Astros. Oswalt is 2-6 in 9 games this season and owns a 2.66 ERA and 1.07 WHIP.

Oswalt is owed 31 million over the next two seasons with a 2 million dollar buyout for the 2012 season. Several teams could benefit from Oswalt, but because of his injury history, it will be interesting to see who makes a move for him.

Now that the Astros are going to try and move him, who do you see entering the mix?

Would not mind seeing him as a Giant, but of course, that depends on the asking price – which knowing both woefully and chronically mismanaged teams – the price will be stupidly high and the Giants would stupidly pay it.

Bruce Bochy: Leave him alone, he's the Manager Man and his BORK is much worse than his bite.
