MLB News: Astros Linked to Former Dodgers, MLBPA 'Strong'
"Astros Sign Son of HOFer to Contract Cavan Biggio, son of Astros great and Hall of Famer Craig Biggio, was signed to a minor league deal by the team, the Associated Press reports. The younger Biggio was a Dodger for part of 2024, appearing in 30 games and slashing .192/.306/.329. The utility man has spent seven years in the majors as part of four teams."
"During his year in LA, Conforto slashed .199/.305/.333 in 138 games. He hit 12 home runs and knocked in 36 runs as well. Conforto slashed .237/.309/.450 with 20 home runs and 66 RBIs for the San Francisco Giants in 2024. He'd been on a one-year, $17 million deal with the Dodgers, but the Boys in Blue filled that hole in the outfield with Kyle Tucker, perhaps the top free agent of the offseason."
Cavan Biggio, son of Hall of Famer Craig Biggio, signed a minor-league contract with the Houston Astros. Biggio appeared in 30 games in 2024 and slashed .192/.306/.329. He has seven major-league seasons across four teams and serves as a utility player. The Astros have shown interest in free agent Michael Conforto, who struggled with the Dodgers, slashing .199/.305/.333 in 138 games with 12 home runs and 36 RBIs. Conforto previously hit .237/.309/.450 with 20 home runs and 66 RBIs for the San Francisco Giants in 2024 and had a one-year, $17 million deal with the Dodgers. MLB Players Association leadership projected stability after executive director Tony Clark resigned amid revelations of an inappropriate relationship with his sister-in-law.
