There is a story in the Boston Globe that indicates the Astros are looking to dump some salary. You can read that blurb here Carlos Lee has been mentioned but since he is owed over 70 million on his contract and since the Mets already signed Delgado they will probably not be interested in him but might show some interest in there closer Jose Valverde.
The 29yr old had 39 saves and struck out 83 in 72 innings last year. His Whip was under 1.20 for the year. He is big man that looks might intimidating on the mound. The only problem with him is the fact he has only 1 year left on his contract and will be in his walk year so if the Mets show interest they should not have to give up much to trade for Valverde.
