3 Moves the Houston Astros Must Make In Offseason to Return to the Playoffs

Описание: The Houston Astros shook up their coaching, training, and front office staff last week. Hitting coaches Alex Cintron and Troy Snitker are out, along with catching coach Michael Collins, head athletic trainer Jeremiah Randall, and Assistant General Manager Andrew Ball. They were all on expiring contracts. The moves come as the Astros just missed the MLB playoffs for the first time since 2016. Manager Joe Espada and General Manager Dana Brown will be back, but the pressure may be on to get the Astros back to the playoffs next season. Jeff Balke, co-host of the Bleav in Astros podcast, discusses what the Astros need to do to return to the postseason next year.
