Trade Deadline: Astros ship closer Brett Myers to White Sox 07.22.12 at 8:02 am ET
By

Houston, MLB’s worst team, has continued its selling process by trading closer Brett Myers to the White Sox for a slew of minor leaguers.

Myers heads to Chicago in exchange for righty Matt Heidenreich, lefty Blair Walters and a player to be named later. Heidenreich will report to Double-A Corpus Christi and Walters will go to High-A Lancaster. Both are starters.

The 31-year-old Myers has a 3.52 ERA with 19 saves. He was a starter for two seasons with the Astros before taking over as closer this season.

The Astros already have traded Carlos Lee, Brandon Lyon and J.A. Happ this season.

    I am not sad. Bring on the playoffs. Now I will grant that this leaves me with not much interest in tomorrows game but even if Paul and Kevin and Lebron were playing it would still have only limited appeal at this point. Bring on the playoffs!
