Weekly offseason discussion thread (Jan 22-28, 2024)

Use this thread for any miscellaneous conversation threads, Astros-related or otherwise, that aren't worthy of a standalone post. I'm planning to post these weekly on Mondays until Spring Training starts.

Suggested conversation topics:

• Why do you think Hader was the player that made Jim Crane finally pull the trigger on a big free agent contract?

• Is there anything left to do for us this offseason?

• Do you believe in ghosts?
