Projecting the Astros’ postseason roster
Photo by Ken Murray/Icon Sportswire via Getty ImagesThe Astros are so good and have such a stranglehold on the American League that it’s almost boring.
With the division secured and the AL’s No. 1 seed all but wrapped up, the stakes are low heading into the final eight games of the regular season. With that in mind, all eyes in Houston are on the postseason.
Being a division winner, the Astros are guaranteed a spot in the ALDS. Game 1 is October 11. Shortly before then, the club will submit its roster for the series. Let’s project which 26 players the organizational brass will include:
Catchers
Martín Maldonado
Christian Vázquez
