They need more than Carlos, but he would be a good piece. I still think he stays with the Stros, they're going to have Verlander and Grienki's contract $$$ free to be able to pay Carlos. Plus it's not like they're a small market team. They can play with the big boys if they want to. And it's not really the money that's the problem, it's the length of the contract that he wants. Carlos wants 10 years and the Astros offered 5 (thus far). There is some room there I think. I just don't see them letting him walk in his prime and breaking up the core piece of that team. He's the leader and losing him would set them back. The Astros know if they keep that group together, they,'ll be able to chase titles for years to come. I could be wrong we'll see what happens.
