Teams have inquired into the availability of Atlanta Braves pitcher Julio Teheran, per FanRag Sports' Jon Heyman.
The Houston Astros are among a list of contending teams that have opened discussions with the Braves about the right-handed hurler. He could be a trade candidate with the July 31st deadline on the horizon.
In 17 starts, the 26-year-old is 6-6 on the year with a 5.71 FIP. He's having his worst season since becoming a full-time big-leaguer in 2013, but he's shown promise in years past. He could be a valuable addition to a contending club.
