http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/MLB-latest-news-from-July-070110 Earlier this week, a trade of Astros right-hander Brett Myers seemed unlikely — particularly if the club dealt Roy Oswalt. Late Friday, however, one major-league source indicated that the Astros have become more open-minded to offers for Myers, their ace-of-the-moment. It’s possible now that Myers, signed to a one-year, $5.1 million contract in January, will be the top right-handed starter moved in the final hours before Saturday’s 4 p.m. ET non-waiver deadline. Perhaps Astros officials are embracing the ideas of saving money and getting younger, as evidenced by trades of Oswalt (to the Phillies) and first baseman Lance Berkman (to the Yankees). The Twins are among the teams involved in the Myers talks, one source said. Minnesota has a need for starting pitching and may want to counter the addition of Edwin Jackson by the rival White Sox. The Astros would probably ask them for one of their young starters — Scott Baker, Kevin Slowey or Nick Blackburn — as part of the package. — Jon Paul Morosi --
