Notes
Jose Altuve’s placement near the top of the lineup signals a more traditional structure as Houston finalizes its batting order ahead of Opening Day. Taylor Trammell’s start in left field follows another strong offensive showing, strengthening his case for a roster spot. Riley Unroe and Jax Biggers remain part of the infield rotation as the Astros continue evaluating depth in the final day of Grapefruit League play.
With spring training now complete, the Astros will travel to Houston for two exhibition games against the Space Cowboys before an off day leading into Opening Day.
