The Houston Astros are in the market for a starting pitcher at the trade deadline, but it won't be for this Miami Marlins struggling ace.

The Houston Astros are in need of another quality starting pitcher to pair with Hunter Brown and Framber Valdez.

The Houston Astros traded right-hander Forrest Whitley to the Tampa Bay Rays after designating him for assignment last weekend, the team announced Friday, ending his tenure in the organization. Houston received cash considerations in the deal for the former top pitching prospect.
