The Astros are looking to upgrade their rotation after losing Framber Valdez to free agency, having added Tatsuya Imai, Mike Burrows, and Ryan Weiss to their pitching staff. General manager Dana Brown indicated Valdez’s departure is likely, as the team has a tight budget and generally avoids high spending on pitchers. Despite having some room under the competitive balance tax, the Astros are not expected to make significant moves, focusing instead on managing their current roster. Additionally, discussions regarding an extension for Hunter Brown are anticipated, as his performance improves and he approaches free agency.
