| STRENGTHS / WEAKNESSES |
Strengths: The left side of their infield is exceptionally strong. Houston has a phenominal outfield. The Houston have a solid rotation all the way through. Weaknesses: Management would like to find someone to play second baseman for them. Houston has a really young bullpen, which can explain its erratic performance. Look for them to add one talented veteran. |
