It’s 2025 already. Happy New Year! Perhaps this is a good time to understand how the Astros’ performance might change in 2025.
Make no mistake about it. Dana Brown is re-shaping the Astros’ offensive profile this off--season. Brown’s major transactions so far are among position players; and, therefore, this article will address the changing profile of the offense. The personnel changes are obvious: the loss of Bregman and Tucker, accompanied the new 3b and 1b, Isaac Paredes and Christian Walker.
I previously evaluated the probable change in team WAR as a result of those changes.
