The trade deadline is the Houston Astros' last chance to address their glaring roster weaknesses in their AL West pursuit.
We're within a month of the trade deadline now, and teams' needs are coming into clear focus, if they hadn't been already. In Houston, the Astros are 24th in OPS in left field and 23rd in center field, and getting hardly any production out of those two spots (not that Cam Smith's .220/.293/.380 slash line with a .673 OPS is killing it in right field, either). It's clear where their priority lies at the deadline, as they've got two notable names from the Colorado Rockies outfield squarely...

The Astros have “strong interest in” Rockies outfielders Mickey Moniak and Jake McCarthy, according to USA Today’s Bob Nightengale. In even more notable trade deadline news, Nightengale writes that the Astros “also plan to be in the Tarik Skubal and Sonny Gray sweepstakes.” While Houston is still only 44-47, that record breaks down as an […]
Astros All-Star shortstop Jeremy Peña is on track to return from the injured list next weekend in Arlington, Astros manager Joe Espada revealed. “The plan is for him to potentially play a game or two in Triple-A, and then we’ll re-assess after that,” Espada said before Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Peña was placed on […]

One Houston Texans expert disclosed some vital information to The Landry Hat about the Dallas Cowboys' cross-state grudge match during the 2026 NFL season.
Is it me, or does it feel like the Rays almost never play well on holidays? Your gut feeling would be right, as Tampa Bay is now *checks notes* 10-18 on Independence Day. The Rays used some of their big pyrotechnics early, as the hottest bat in the sport, Junior Caminero, homered AGAIN in the […]
