I think he should hold his cards.

First off … it’s Ed Wade!

Hard to argue with that.

I think the Astros could get more for both guys in the offseason.

Wasn't there a study that showed teams tend to get a bit more in-season than off-season? On the one hand, teams are more desperate, but on the other hand, more teams are in play in the off-season. But with Pence and Wandy being signed for several years, I can see teams not in it this year getting in on the bidding as well.

When does Bourn's contract expire? The Nationals are desperate for a leadoff man, and while B.J. Upton is younger and has more upside, Bourn may come more cheaply.
