The Astros have “expressed interest” in free agent OF Michael Conforto. (Source: Brian McTaggart on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Conforto's market has been quiet after he struggled with the Dodgers last season. He would compete for a spot in the outfield if he signs with Houston.
The Astros signed CJ Alexander to a minor league contract.
Fantasy Impact: Alexander spent time in Triple-A for the Athletics, Yankees and Dodgers organizations last season. He'll add infield depth in the Astros organization.
