The Houston Astros are interested in free-agent catcher Christian Vazquez, according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic. Vazquez caught for Houston during the second half of the 2022 season after a trade from Boston, and he ultimately won a World Series ring with the club. He just finished a three-year deal with the Twins, during which he posted the worst offensive numbers of his career. Though 65 games in 2025, he slashed .189/.271/.274 with 55 wRC+ and -12.7 fWAR at the plate. However, he did bring his walk rate up to 8.4% (highest mark since 2020) while cutting his strikeout rate down to 16.4% (lowest mark since 2022). Defensively, his framing contributed three runs below average, but he was above average in blocking and throwing. He finished with an FRV of zero runs above average and a defensive fWAR of 7.9 wins. Vazquez is certainly past his prime, but he can still be a solid, defense-first contributor on a contender while offering a steady veteran presence. If he were to sign with the Astros, he'd compete for the No. 2 catcher role behind Yainer Diaz after Victor Caratini departed for the Twins.--Andersen Pickard
