08:27 AM ET 08.09 | If the Astros are still going to go after a center fielder in the off-season, Torii Hunter, Andruw Jones and Aaron Rowand are the top names remaining. Hunter and Jones (a Boras client) will get huge contracts, but Rowand would be cheaper and could be a nice fit.

Rowand would probably be the best choice, seeing after the Beltran incident, the 'Stros won't deal with Boras clients.

one player doesn't make a team (remember A-Rod, Texas and the division cellar 3 yrs in a row?). The Astros have much bigger problems to solve....like boosting their minor league system.....they have a serious deficit of decent pitching prospects......

I'm confused. I thought Hunter Pence was our center field... and Carlos Lee is holding down the fort in LF for the next half-decade... and Luke Scott is a very adequate right fielder, offensively and defensively, not to mention, his "back-up", Berkman.
WE NEED PITCHING, people...pronto!!!

Pitching should be the #1 priority!!!!!! Carlos Lee signed a 100 mil deal to play LF,Hunter Pence would have been the R.O.Y if he didnt get hurt, and Luke Scott/Berkman can play RF. Go get us a solid 2 & 3 starter because jason jennings & woody the woodpecker aint cuttin it here! Wandy Rodriquez maybe able to hold his own, but he's very inconsistent. This is why the astros cant win the WS. They should have traded Loretta,Lamb,Jason Lane! Jason Lane needs to go, like NOW! He's had so many chances to play and he's nothing more then a bench PH. Good job astros, keep up the horrible job - Clemens & Pettitte wont be walking through that door anytime soon!

well we had a center fielder, who's hitting .313 w/ a .362 OBP and 29 steals, and pitching prospects too. but we decided creating vacancies by trading away youth and skill for an injury prone 6+ERA....
WTF, how does this man still have a job...

All of you are failing to realize they are shopping for a center fielder because Pence is naturally a right fielder. Hunter would much rather play right than Center, so why not kill two birds with one stone, and get a solid OF/CF and make Pence happy.
Do the astros need pitching? of coarse. But they can go out and shop for that, too.

As long as Pence gets to play, I don't think he really cares where he plays. I like the OF combination of Lee/Pence/Scott. Offensively & defensively. Luke is underrated in RF, Carlos' bat makes up for his sometimes-lacking defense, and Pence is quickly learning CF, and, like Carlos, makes up for his "misjudgments" with his bat...
Save money for pitching!!!
