The Astros would trade more of their franchise away just before the trade deadline. Lance Berkman has been traded to the New York Yankees. The Astros got rid of Oswalt and Berkman in the same week. Talk about starting over. The Yankees made this move to improve their already impressive offense. More importantly, they made it to help them deal with the ever surprising Rays which seem to be getting closer to the Yankees every day. Berkman, though, doesn't exactly have great numbers batting .245 with 13 HR's and 49 RBI's this season but a new team that is a playoff contender may boost his confidence and give him some lift.
P.S. Steinbrenner is dead and they are still adding more pieces. DAMN IT!!!
