Framber Valdez, Houston Astros talented left-hander, faces an uncertain future as the Astros surprisingly decline to offer him a qualifying contract. This decision, tied to the competitive balance tax, could impact any team hoping to sign him, with smaller market teams facing a significant penalty. Valdez, a two-time All-Star and World Series champion, is now seeking his first long-term deal, with his agent assessing the market over the next two weeks. The Astros, however, will still receive compensation if he signs elsewhere.
