The bullpen is costing the Astros wins. And, as we’ve said recently, the team needs help right now. In free agency, there’s a high-quality arm that has already been a member of the club, but comes with injury risk and a negative reputation: Roberto Osuna.
Could or should the Astros pay the price of another PR blow (ahem sign-stealing scandal) by signing Osuna hoping he’d be the solution to their bullpen woes?
Besides his last-year injury that kept him from the mound for most of 2020, a big reason why Osuna isn’t currently pitching in the Majors is due to his case of domestic violence back in 2018, for which he even received a 75-game suspension by MLB.
