Earlier today, the Houston Astros made eight roster moves. As Evan Drelich reported earlier, the club either optioned or reassigned the following players: Joe Sclafani, Jake Buchanan, Tyler Heineman, Michael Feliz, A.J. Reed, Cesar Valdez, Eury Perez, and most notably Jon Singleton.
These moves let us know almost all we need to know about the two most contested position battles of the spring, and they are first base and backup catcher.
