On Sunday, the Houston Astros announced their second round of roster cuts for spring training. While four pitchers were optioned and re-assigned on Friday, six players were re-assigned to the minor leagues before Sunday’s game.

The Astros started spring with 76 players, and after these ten cuts, the team is at 66 with the signing of Jake Odorizzi and Pedro Baez being on the injured list.
