The Houston Astros have been pretty busy this offseason for a team that entered the winter with some real questions as to how much they could afford to add to their roster at all. On top of that, the Astros got one of the international jewels of the offseason when they signed Tatsuya Imai. However, when international free agency opens on January 15, Houston is set to add even more international help to the organization.
The Astros have been relatively active when it comes to international free agents in recent years, though they have not really leaned on that market to add talent.
