The Astros announced yesterday that the team will pick up the $3 million option on Craig Biggio’s contract for next year. However, the Astros declined to pick up the $9 million option for Jeff Kent’s contract (opting for a $700,000 buyout). The team appears interested in Kent returning, if he’ll agree to less money.
