The Houston Astros are approaching the MLB trade deadline with a clear focus on strengthening their starting pitching and addressing gaps at first base.

Earlier this season, the Astros parted ways with Jose Abreu following a disappointing start. Since then, they have been identified as potential candidates to make a significant acquisition at first base before the deadline.

While names like Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Pete Alonso, and Christian Walker have been prominently mentioned, MLB insider Jon Heyman has linked Tampa Bay Rays third baseman Isaac Paredes to Houston. Despite primarily playing third base for the Rays, Paredes has showcased versatility and earned All-Star honors this season with impressive statistics. In 94 games during the 2024 campaign, he has posted a .255/.357/.455 batting line along with 16 home runs and 51 RBI, making a strong case for Houston’s interest.

Although Paredes may not possess the star power of Guerrero or Alonso, he represents a valuable impact player who could substantially bolster the Astros’ lineup. Additionally, at 25 years old, Paredes fits into Houston’s strategy of acquiring players with multiple years of contractual control, as he is signed through the 2027 season.

General Manager Dana Brown has emphasized the importance of adding players like Paredes, whose contract stability aligns with the team’s long-term objectives. Whether the Astros pursue a blockbuster trade or smaller transactions to enhance roster depth remains to be seen, but Paredes figures prominently in their trade deliberations.

As the trade deadline draws near, Houston’s decision-making will attract significant attention, with Paredes emerging as a potential key addition at first base with the potential to make a significant impact.
