Houston Astros Headlines
Ethan Frey is making waves in spring training, showcasing why he’s a breakout prospect for the Astros as they look ahead to 2026. Meanwhile, Jose Altuve and Lance McCullers Jr. made their Grapefruit League debuts in a 4-4 tie against the Nationals, with Altuve eyeing a 155-game season after returning to second base. On the flip side, Jake Meyers' potential trade rumors loom larger as the Astros experiment with Cam Smith’s role, a move that could foreshadow a shift in the outfield. Tatsuya Imai managed a scoreless inning in his spring debut, but his experience was marred by a comebacker incident. As the Astros continue to mix and match their roster, one thing is clear: they need to address their 21st-ranked offense from last season, or risk falling behind in the competitive AL West.
