Jeff Luhnow isn't giving out any secrets, but he did say this afternoon that the Astros are still interested in the recently-declared-a-free-agent Cuban outfielder Jorge Soler. He did not, however, say whether the Astros had submitted a bid.
Soler has to sign with a team before July 2, or risk losing millions. Scott Boras is already pissed, but he isn't quite sure why*.

We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
