Astros place Latroy Hawkins on Waivers
Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com reports the Astros have placed right-hander LaTroy Hawkins on waivers.
Rosenthal expects the Rockies, Cardinals and Dodgers to heavily pursue the 36-year-old veteran. Colorado, with the lowest winning percentage of the three, would be given first crack. Hawkins has held opponents to a .645 OPS in 48 2/3 innings this season. He boasts a 2.03 ERA and 1.15 WHIP. Source: FOXSports.com Related: Rockies, Dodgers, Cardinals

So much for the talk
LaTroy might be the Astros 2010 closer (unless of course Astros pull him back )

update
According to Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com, reliever LaTroy Hawkins was claimed off waivers by a team Wednesday but has been pulled back by the Astros. It’s not clear which team made the attempted claim.
Rosenthal correctly predicted this outcome Wednesday morning and now notes that Hawkins is no longer eligible to be traded this season. The 36-year-old has a 1.99 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in 49 2/3 innings for the 61-64 Astros.
