With Craig Kimbrel still available, should the Astros make a run at him?

Last season, Craig Kimbrel set another milestone by winning his first World Series with the Red Sox. It’s another step towards the Hall of Fame and Kimbrel has the ability to make any bullpen better. It’s a surprise that the 31-year old is yet to be signed and the Astros could finally have a dependable closer.

The Stats

Kimbrel finished last year with a 5-1 record with a 2.74 ERA, he racked up 42 saves and struck out 96 batters in 62 1/3 innings. If you don’t recall, he was traded to Boston in 2016 and won the AL Reliever of the Year award in 2017.
