Yes, correct that TJ was sought after.
Apparently we actually traded him to Atlanta for LB Akeem Dent..

Dent is 6'1" 240 lb MLB with 20 starts past two years. Was drafted in 3rd rd in 2011 by Atlanta. Looks like Atl signed Tim Dobbins to replace Dent.
I think Texans did pretty good in this deal, much better than just releasing Yates for nothing. This seems like good quality depth for IlB position.
