Thanks to Fangraphs depth chart projections, the Astros currently rank as the fifth best team in terms of projected wins and losses. That’s not bad before the season even begins, right?
How though are the Astros ranked this high as a team?
Like everything in a team sport, it comes down to each player on the roster. It just so happens that Houston has plenty of good players on their roster. And quite a few are projected to play baseball well this upcoming season. Especially from the position players.
