The Houston Astros face a pivotal offseason after their earliest playoff exit in eight years. With general manager Dana Brown hinting at potential roster changes, the focus shifts to the pitching rotation, which struggled with injuries but showed promise with the emergence of players like Hunter Brown and Ronel Blanco.
