What is the biggest need if the Astros have to choose only one center fielder or closer? @JamesTalton2
With Brantley and Castro in the fold, it certainly appears center field and closer are the two areas where the Astros have the biggest need. For me, the biggest need is for a closer, for a few reasons. First, contending teams need dependable closers, and the Astros plan to contend in 2021. Keeping Ryan Pressly in a setup role and signing, say, either Trevor Rosenthal, Brad Hand or Alex Colomé would come at a cost, but it would give the Astros a competitive bullpen.

It took awhile for the Yankees offseason to “start.” They were able to retain DJ LeMahieu, and even reel in Corey Kluber to bolster the starting rotation.

With that said, the way we see the roster now is how it will likely be come Opening Day, which means no more enforcements are on the way.
The Yankees will need the current talent on their roster to help them win games this upcoming season. But, for a select few players such as Miguel Andújar, Tyler Wade, and Mike Ford, their success will not only help the Yankees put tallies in the win column, but could also keep the pinstripes on their backs.

With the Red Sox hoping to make more headway with offseason acquisitions in the coming weeks, their 40-man roster as it pertains to Dustin Pedroia bears watching. The four-time All-Star and four-time Gold Glove Award winner didn’t play at all in 2020 due to his problematic left knee, and he
