If the Houston Astros want to show fans they are making a future they have to commit and sell off Bourn and Wandy, and Myers if they can. Even Barmes shouldn't be untouchable unless they are using him to help guide Altuve in his early career in the majors.
So in Keppinger and Pence we have brought in 6 prospects. So far the keppinger trade has brought us guys who are playing great for us since coming on board, and we have 2 highly reguarded prospects in the Pence trade.
I think the real assesment will be if we trade the rest, how much better did our minor league system get.... AND... did Altuve and JD Martinez prosper in their call up.
3 players have made it to the bigs this year. That is very different for the Astros. That has not happened in a long time.
Here is the lates link on trading Bourn
