Weekly offseason discussion thread (Jan 6-12, 2025)

Use this thread for any miscellaneous conversation threads, Astros-related or otherwise, that aren't worthy of a standalone post. These will be posted weekly on Mondays until Spring Training starts.

Suggested conversation topics:

• Is betting on contributions from returning injured pitchers (France, Garcia, Javier, McCullers) to fill out the rotation a smart strategy?

• Where will Alex Bregman end up signing?

• Is January the worst month of the year?
