Astros Outfield Options
Lets be honest here, the Astros outfield is looking a little worse for wear right now with Springer and Brantley leaving for Toronto.
Currently our outfield is: Yordan Alvarez, a DH with a bad knee.
Chas McCormick, a rookie with an average bat but good speed.
Kyle Tucker, hopes have been fufilled in 2020 with Tucker, he seems to have gotten comfortable in the bigs and were starting to see the player he will be. Whether he can carry that success into a full 162-game season, we will see.
Lets go with the Astros are probably not bringing back Reddick. What free agents are available? There have only been 3 names tied to Houston:
Yasiel Puig
Jackie Bradley Jr.
Andrew Benintendi
Astros are roughly $32 Million below the tax threshold. With the Springer signing JBJ is the next biggest CF, so his asking price may be too high for Houston. Benintendi however seems like a decent option.
UPDATE: ASTROS SIGNED BRANTLEY!!!!! MAYBE???
