Astros Re-Sign Velazquez Amid Front Office Shake-Up | Houston Astros News

Houston Astros shake up their front office by parting ways with GM Dana Brown—mutual decision, of course—while still making roster moves on the field. Outfielder Nelson Velazquez, who went unclaimed on waivers, has re-signed on a major league deal, forcing them to option Ray Delgado. Velazquez, though hitless in limited at-bats, did drive in a run and previously hit four homers for the Cardinals. The twist? He’s out of minor league options, meaning the Astros can’t send him down—they’d have to DFA him or let him go, adding pressure as they navigate this transition.
