MLB,Framber Valdez,Alex Bregman

If this brutal start continues, then the Houston Astros might have to do something unthinkable and start selling off some of their assets at the trade deadline.

Sitting at 7-18 entering Thursday's game, they look like a complete shell of themselves after being the most feared team in the American League for much of the past decade.has Houston facing the second-easiest set of opponents the rest of the season., the only way to go is up for a team who has been a perennial contender for years.

While they're at it, they might also see what they can get for other high-profile players like Framber Valdez and Kyle Tucker. Moving them isn't as urgent as finding a deal for Bregman if things continue to slide, since both Valdez and Tucker have another year of club control, but Houston was already reportedly shopping their ace in the offseason and there have been no extension talks with their star right fielder to date.Valdez is probably the least-likely to be dealt since Verlander is 41 years old and this rotation completely fell apart without him and the star lefty.
