Astros consider trading Jeremy Peña as Yankees eye potential deal

Houston Astros general manager Dana Brown stated the team has not discussed trading Yordan Alvarez or Jeremy Peña. However, Peña's contract situation may lead to consideration if the Astros fall out of postseason contention. The New York Yankees could be interested in Peña, who holds a 1.4 bWAR this season and was named World Series MVP in 2022. Anthony Volpe's position on the Yankees roster is uncertain as he has struggled recently, leading to speculation about a potential trade. Discussions regarding Peña's availability could intensify as the trade deadline approaches.
