Astros: Should Myles Straw be on the playoff roster?

It’s nearly decision time for A.J. Hinch and company for the Astros roster as the playoffs draw near. We’ve already looked at the decisions Hinch will face regarding the makeup of the bullpen for the playoffs. But there’s another decision that merits some attention.

Josh Reddick, George Springer, and Tony Kemp are likely to be the main starters in the outfield, with Marwin Gonzalez an option as well. There may be room for a fourth or fifth outfielder on the roster, with Jake Marisnick seemingly the frontrunner for that spot.
