↵↵Wonder if more teams will want Jeff Keppinger than Brett Myers. I'm serious. Keppinger has been good, and Myers has a 4.88 ERA.

After Myers' great season last year, there's no question that he hasn't been pitching as well this season. His start last night only lasted 4.1 innings, and it was his shortest outing since 2008. He had previously thrown 51 consecutive starts of at least five innings. While he has struggled this year, he could be a nice innings-eater for most teams around the league. He is apparently on the Yankees radar, but Jon Heyman wrote that the Astros' front office is going to be tough in all trade negotiations this year.
