Potentially adding to what has already been a busy offseason, Evan Drellich of the Houston Chronicle reports that the Astros are targeting free agent starter Ryan Vogelsong.
Earlier in the offseason Vogelsong made it clear that he wanted to re-sign with the Giants, but San Francisco hasn’t shown much interest in making that happen.
After a terrible 2013 season Vogelsong bounced back somewhat last year, starting 32 games with a 4.00 ERA and 151/58 K/BB ratio in 185 innings. At age 37 he’d likely be available on a modest one-year deal to fill out the back of Houston’s rotation.
