Astros bizarre connection to ex-Mariners infielder raises more questions than answers

This is the time of the year when the hot stove has a mini reprisal. No stars will change hands, but with roster cuts and minor league free agent opt outs, we start to see a lot of player movement based on how spring training has shaken out. With that, the Houston Astros have a target in mind.

They say familiarity breeds attraction, and maybe that's what's going on here with the rumor that the Astros are interested in Dylan Moore after he triggered his opt-out from the Philadelphia Phillies. A long-time member of the Seattle Mariners, Moore also spent a brief stint with the Texas Rangers last season, making Houston very accustomed to the veteran utility man.
