Can the Astros’ Latest Roster Shake-Up Be the Game-Changer They’ve Been Waiting For?
Offseason moves:
So how did the Astros try to deal with the “close but no cigar” of missing the playoffs last year? They let Framber Valdez walk. It feels like more than any team, the Astros have been comfortable letting their preimer players, mainstays that have helped them to all this winning, leave the franchise. Gerrit Cole, Valdez, Kyle Tucker, Alex Bregman, Carlos Correa, and others have all left. Yet, they still win. This year, they didn’t do much in the offseason other than signing some bullpen guys and depth. However, they did get Tatsuya Imai. Imai was regarded as potentially a great pitcher, but the market kind of evaporated for him. If he performs well, it will be a steal of a contract for Houston.Â
