Imai's Astros Signing Sparks MLB Trade Speculation
The Houston Astros signed Tatsuya Imai to a three-year deal, which may influence their trade plans due to payroll and luxury tax considerations. While some key players are unlikely to be traded, others like Christian Walker and Jake Meyers could be potential trade targets to manage payroll and stay below the luxury tax threshold. The team's ownership remains cautious about exceeding the tax line, but past decisions suggest flexibility if the right opportunity arises.
