1 month agoFree-agent first baseman Christian Walker agreed to a three-year, $60 million deal with the Houston Astros on Friday. It's yet another sign that the Astros won't be re-signing All-Star third baseman Alex Bregman this winter. The Astros acquired infielder Isaac Paredes from the Chicago Cubs in the trade that sent outfielder Kyle Tucker to Chicago, so Paredes should replace Bregman at the hot corner. Walker will end up taking over first-base duties from Jon Singletary, who had struggled against left-handed pitching. Walker, who is entering his age-34 season, is a three-time Gold Glover and also has been a stable source of power production for fantasy managers, averaging just under 32 home runs in each of the last three seasons. Only Pete Alonso and Matt Olson have more homers at the first-base position than Walker since the start of 2022. Walker should see a slight fantasy boost with the move to Houston.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
