In the midst of a five-team race for the NL Central title, GM Ed Wade told Sirius XM Radio that the Astros will not be buyers this July. They are just 3.0 games behind the division-leading Cardinals, with a record of 45-44.
Miguel Tejada, LaTroy Hawkins, Jose Valverde and Ivan Rodriguez all become free agents after the season, so the Astros will have pieces to consider selling if they fall out of the race in the next two weeks.
