Astros could trade Jeremy Pena after failed contract talks

The Houston Astros are weighing a potential trade of shortstop Jeremy Pena after failed contract extension talks. Pena, who is under contract through 2027, has already turned down an offer to remain in Houston beyond that season. According to MLB.com's Brian McTaggart, if the Astros fall out of playoff contention by the Trade Deadline, Pena becomes a likely trade candidate.
