Stephen Parello of Climbing Tal's Hill laid out the strong case for Espada to earn the AL Manager of the Year Award from Major League Baseball at the end of the season.

An Astros farm system that has made something of a brand out of discovering and cultivating unheralded prospect gems has flipped the script: the club is reportedly summoning its No. 1 prospect and 2023 first-round pick Brice Matthews to the big leagues in the heat of a summer pennant chase.

Following a 10-game losing streak, the Cleveland Guardians won three straight games against one of MLB's best teams, the Houston Astros.

Henry Palattella of Climbing Tal's Hill named five players with whom the Astros could cut ties as the trade deadline comes to pass. Those five are all on the roster bubble, and with some additions at the trade deadline, could be moved on from.

Despite losing All-Star shortstop Jeremy Peña to a rib injury this week, and missing slugger Yordan Alvarez for almost all of the first half, the Astros continued their stunning roll toward the break, dealing the Los Angeles Dodgers their worst loss ever at Chavez Ravine as if it were the late 2010s all over again.

The Astros sweep the Dodgers in Los Angeles, the Pirates turn good history into bad, the Guardians blew it in the ninth and more from the weekend's MLB action.

As spring training opened ahead of the 2025 season, the Astros transitioned Altuve from second base to left field after his defensive metrics dipped in recent seasons. The move was designed to play a more athletic defender in the infield while allowing slugger Yordan Alvarez to assume full-time duties as the team’s designated hitter.

Here is a dream scenario approach to the deadline where Houston can address their needs without moving their top prospect, Brice Matthews, who could end up being a contributor himself down the stretch: Houston must add a left-handed bat at the deadline. While there are a couple of intriguing options, O'Hearn might be the best fit.
