Less than a month remains before Opening Day, and the roster headache the Houston Astros had at the start of the offseason is still the one they are trying to sort out during spring training. Isaac Paredes and Christian Walker remain on the roster, and to everyone except Dana Brown, the situation seems to be barreling toward some drama unfolding behind the scenes.
The latest to voice their concern was The Athletic's (subscription required) Ken Rosenthal. Sure, Rosenthal, at this stage of his career, still gets plenty of scoops to maintain his status as one of the more reputable insiders in the game, but his attention has turned to taking advantage of an opportunity to dunk on a team/player when the moment calls for it.
