It's no secret, the big topic of conversation from the Winter Meetings is the Houston Astros and what the future holds for several of their star players.

Fans are starting to voice some concern about what the team could look like should they let Alex Bregman walk, and trade away Kyle Tucker and/or Framber Valdez.

Houston's social media team recently posted a video about the Astros young guns, and let's just say it didn't go over well in the comments. And the timing of this post is quite curious to say the least.

Which begs this question. Are the Astros doing what's necessary by moving on from players they don't believe they can re-sign, or are they on the verge of some big mistakes?

Don't miss the video above as ESPN Houston's John Granato and Lance Zierlein weigh in.
