2023 Houston Astros Season

The 2023 Houston Astros season was the 62nd season for the Houston Astros, a Major League Baseball (MLB) franchise located in Houston, Texas, their 59th as the Astros, 11th in both the American League and American League West, and 24th at Minute Maid Park. They entered the season as defending World Series champions, their second title, as well both the defending AL and AL West champions.

On April 3, 2023, Yordan Álvarez hit his 100th career home run in his 372nd game, setting the record for fewest in franchise history, and the fifth fastest in major league history. José Altuve reached a number of career milestones, including 1,000 runs scored (June 13, 2023), 35 four-hit games (June 17), 200 home runs (August 5), and 2,000 hits (August 19). Closer Ryan Pressly became the fourth pitcher to convert 100 saves as a member of the Astros on July 25. The Astros reacquired Kendall Graveman and Justin Verlander at the trade deadline, mirroring moves they have made for both players in previous postseason runs. On the day of the trade for Verlander—August 1—Framber Valdez no-hit the Cleveland Guardians to become the first left-handed pitcher in franchise history to deliver such a feat. Valdez's no-hitter was the 16th no-hitter in franchise history.

The Astros passed 3 million fans in attendance for the fifth time in franchise history; however, they were defeated in 17 of their final 23 home games to produce their first losing season at home (39–42) since 2014, when they went 70–92 overall.

On September 30, the Astros clinched a playoff berth for the seventh consecutive year and the eighth time in nine seasons with a 1–0 shutout win against the Arizona Diamondbacks; they became the fourth team in MLB history to reach the postseason in seven consecutive seasons, a continuation of the most successful era in franchise history.

On October 1, the Astros clinched the AL West title for the third consecutive year and the sixth time in the last seven seasons with an 8–1 win against Arizona, and the second seed in AL postseason play. They beat the Minnesota Twins in four games in the ALDS to reach the ALCS for the seventh consecutive season, a continued American League record in LCS appearance streak. The Astros failed to defend their title as they lost to the eventual World Series champion Texas Rangers in seven games, their first Lone Star Series rivalry matchup in the postseason.

Álvarez, Kyle Tucker, and Valdez were each named to the MLB All-Star Game as reserve players, while Dusty Baker was manager for the American League. In the MLB draft, Houston selected Brice Matthews, a shortstop from the University of Nebraska, at #28 overall in the first round for their top pick. Tucker led the AL in runs batted in (RBI, 112), was named Astros' team Most Valuable Player (MVP) and won his first career Silver Slugger Award, while Mauricio Dubón earned the first Gold Glove Award of his career. Valdez was named the Astros' Pitcher of the Year, while catcher Yainer Díaz was team Rookie of the Year.

Offseason

November–December 2022

The Houston Astros finished the 2022 season as World Series champions, their second title overall, and first since 2017. Their 106 regular-season wins represented the second-highest total in franchise history, to the 2019 club, and the fifth 100-win season in team history. They clinched their fifth AL West division title, and 13th overall, and fifth league pennant, including four AL pennants. Further, their entrance into the 2022 American League Championship Series (ALCS) was their sixth consecutive, representing the longest streak for an AL club. It trailed only the Atlanta Braves, who played eight consecutive National League Championship Series (1991–1999) for most consecutive League Championship Series (LCS) played.

On November 8, 2022, it was announced that manager Dusty Baker would be back for the 2023 season as Astros manager.

On November 11, 2022, it was announced that general manager (GM) James Click would not be returning to the Astros for the 2023 season. The following day, assistant GM Scott Powers was fired. Click had hired Powers from the Los Angeles Dodgers' front office in January 2022. Charles Cook and Bill Firkus were both promoted to assistant GM following the World Series. While the club operated without an officially-titled GM, club owner Jim Crane became active in the role, including directly negotiating with free agents. Cook, Firkus, and co-assistant GM Andrew Ball each assumed increased responsibilities.

The Astros signed hitting coach Alex Cintrón to an extension to run through the 2025 season on November 21, 2022. Having interviewed for the Toronto Blue Jays' bench coach position, the Astros re-signed him before the Blue Jays finalized their decision.

On November 28, 2022, the Astros signed 1st baseman José Abreu to a three-year, $58.5 million contract.

Catcher Jason Castro announced his retirement from playing on December 2, 2022. The Astros' first-round selection and number 10 overall in the 2008 MLB draft from Stanford University, Castro spent nine of 12 major league seasons in Houston, earning an All-Star selection in 2013 while starring on teams that lost 107, 111, and 92 games during the club's period of rebuilding. Although injury in 2022 precluded him from playing in the Astros' championship run, he earned his first World Series ring. Upon retirement, Castro ranked as the Astros' career leader among catchers in home runs (71), and his 717 games at the position ranked third behind Alan Ashby and Brad Ausmus.

On December 21, 2022, the Astros re-signed outfielder Michael Brantley to a 1-year, $12 million contract

January–February 2023

Former broadcaster Bill Brown and infielder Bill Doran were announced on January 21, 2023, as inductees to the Houston Astros Hall of Fame with an induction ceremony prior to a contest on August 12 versus on the Los Angeles Angels. The announcement came during the annual Astros FanFest, held at Minute Maid Park. It was the first Astros FanFest since 2020, prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to cancellation of the following two annual events.

On January 26, 2023, the Astros named Dana Brown as their next general manager, hiring him from the position as the Atlanta Braves' vice president of scouting.

On February 10, 2023, the Astros announced that they extended pitcher Cristian Javier for 5 years & $64 million.

World Baseball Classic

The following Astros represented their respective countries at the 2023 World Baseball Classic (WBC):

During the first round, Team Puerto Rico combined to pitch eight perfect innings before the game ended 10–0 when Maldonado scored on a walk-off hit in the bottom of the eighth inning that invoked the tournament's mercy rule. Due to lasting fewer than nine innings, it did not qualify as an official perfect game, per the Elias Sports Bureau (ESB). José De León, Yacksel Ríos, Edwin Díaz, and Duane Underwood Jr. all pitched for Puerto Rico.

In Venezuela's quarterfinals loss to the United States, Altuve sustained a left thumb fracture from an errant Daniel Bard pitch. Altuve underwent surgery and was expected to miss the first two months of the regular season.

The Astros played their first Spring Training game on February 25, 2022, versus the New York Mets, and ended preseason activities on March 28 versus the Triple-A affiliate Sugar Land Space Cowboys. On March 8, the Astros faced Team Venezuela, a participant in the World Baseball Classic.

The club finished third overall in Grapefruit League play with a 14–10 record. They scored 140 runs while allowing 97; their +43 run differential led all MLB teams in spring training.

For their final Opening Day roster spots, the Astros selected reliever Ronel Blanco, catcher Yainer Díaz, outfielder Corey Julks, reliever Seth Martinez, and catcher César Salazar. Julks and Salazar were selected to an MLB roster for the first time in their careers, positioning them for their major league debuts. Díaz and Martinez made the MLB Opening Day roster for the first time in their careers.

Regular season

For the first time, MLB scheduled each team in the league to play every other team in the league during the regular season, resulting in Houston facing National League (NL) teams 46 times, compared to 20 times under prior scheduling.

The Astros opened the 2023 regular season at Minute Maid Park with festivities to honor the club's 2022 championship season, including presenting World Series rings to players, coaches, and all 2,000 team personnel. Houston's Framber Valdez pitched opposite of Chicago's Dylan Cease as their team's respective Opening Day starters. While both remained unscored upon while still on the mound, Cease was more dominant, striking out 10 en route to retiring 19 consecutive Astros hitters. Newcomer José Abreu singled in the sixth inning off Cease for his first base hit as an Astro. In the ninth inning, Andrew Vaughn hit a tie-breaking two-run double that led a 3–2 White Sox win. The loss ended 10 consecutive Opening Day wins for the Astros, which had tied a major league record. Previously, Houston had remained unbeaten on Opening Day since moving to the American League. For the first time since 2011, José Altuve was not present as Houston's Opening Day starting second baseman. The last player to start before Altuve was Bill Hall. In seventh inning of the second game, on March 31, Yordan Álvarez hit a bases-clearing double that represented the game-winning run in a 6–3 win.

Postseason

American League Division Series (ALDS)

The 2023 ALDS was the second postseason meeting between Houston and Minnesota, following the 2020 American League Wild Card Series matchup, which 2020 Houston Astros season, Houston won in a two-game sweep. The Twins' postseason roster featured two former Astros who each represented one of their two prior World Series championships: Carlos Correa (2017), and Christian Vázquez (2022 World Series, 2022).

2023 American League Division Series#Houston vs. Minnesota, 2023 American League Division Series versus Minnesota Twins: HOU won, 3–1

Game 1. The opening of the Astros' 2023 postseason featured the Twins assigning Bailey Ober to make his first career postseason start, opposite to Justin Verlander making the 35th of his career, tied for second-most all time. José Altuve homered on Ober's first delivery and extended his major league postseason-record eighth leadoff home run and 24th overall. In the bottom of the third inning, Yordan Álvarez hit a two-run home run to bring the Astros' lead to 3–0. In the bottom of the fifth inning, José Abreu singled home Alex Bregman and Chas McCormick then singled home Álvarez to extend the Astros' lead to 5–0. Verlander tossed six shutout innings to post the sixth scoreless start of his postseason career. Héctor Neris, in relief in the top of the seventh inning, yielded a three-run home to Jorge Polanco and a solo home run to Royce Lewis to shrink the Astros' lead to 5–4. In the bottom of the seventh, Álvarez hit his second home run of the game versus Caleb Thielbar to open the Astros' lead to 6–4. Bryan Abreu and Ryan Pressly, who worked the first five-plus years of his major league career with the Twins, combined for scoreless innings to finish the game. It was the Astros' 12th consecutive ALDS win at home.

Game 2. The Twins won the second game, 6–2, as Houston starter Framber Valdez faltered and Twins starter Pablo López (baseball), Pablo López tossed seven shutouts innings. In the top of the first inning, Correa doubled versus his former teammate to score Polanco. Kyle Farmer hit a two-run home run in the top of the second to extend the Twins' lead to 3–0. In the fifth, Correa singled home two more runs to push the lead to 5–0 and ended Valdez' outing after innings. In the seventh, Edouard Julien singled home Lewis and the Twins led 6–0. Yordan Álvarez hit his third home run of the series off Brock Stewart in the eighth to give the Astros their only runs of the game. The Twins realized their first victory in American League Division Series, ALDS play since 2004 American League Division Series, 2004; meanwhile, the Astros' 12-game home winning streak in the ALDS was snapped. It was also their first loss in a Game 2 of an LDS since 2015 American League Division Series, 2015.

Game 3. The Astros opened Game 3 with a four-run inning: José Abreu homered for Houston off Twins starter Sonny Gray and added a two-run home run in the ninth to lead the Astros to a 9–1 win. Álvarez hit his fourth home run in three games and Bregman hit a home run and an RBI single. Astros starter Cristian Javier worked five scoreless innings with nine strikeouts and induced whiffs from Twins batters in 13 of 16 offerings at his Slider (pitch), slider. Despite walking five and hitting another batter, Javier allowed just one hit. Minnesota batters went 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position and left 9 men on base. Gray, who yielded five runs over four-plus innings and two home runs in this game, was the major league leader in home runs per nine innings allowed (0.391), and had become the eighth pitcher since 2000 to pitch 180 or more innings and allow 8 or fewer home runs.

Álvarez was 6-for-12 with six RBI and 20 total bases in the first three LDS games. Per OptaSTATs, Álvarez joined Reggie Jackson as the only players in history to hit at least four home runs and six extra-base hits within a three-game span of a postseason.

Game 4. José Urquidy started Game 4 for the Astros and delivered innings with two runs allowed, both on solo home runs, three hits, one walk, and struck out six. Julien hit a leadoff double in the first inning for the Twins but a sharp line drive hit by Polanco was instantly caught by shortstop Jeremy Peña. He dove and tagged out Julien sliding back to second base for the unassisted double play. A critical play by Peña, Lewis, the next batter, followed with a solo home run off Urquidy for a 1–0, rather than a 3–0, lead. In the bottom of the second, Michael Brantley tied the contest 1–1 with a solo home run off Twins starter Joe Ryan (baseball), Joe Ryan. In the fourth inning, Thielbar, in relief of Ryan, yielded a single to Álvarez before allowing a two-run home run to José Abreu, giving the Astros a 3–1 lead. Chris Paddack gave the Twins hitless innings with four strikeouts as the Twins bullpen kept the Astros hitters from reaching the rest of the game. Neris and Bryan Abreu led the Astros' relief corps with five strikeouts over hitless innings to hand a 3–2 lead to Ryan Pressly. Pressly Striking out the side, struck out the side in the ninth for his second save of the series; he froze Max Kepler with a full-count fastball to end the contest with Correa waiting in the on-deck circle. The win clinched the ALDS for the Astros, advancing them to, and extended their record, seventh-straight American League Championship Series (ALCS) appearance. Correa batted .409 with three doubles and four RBI for the Twins in the ALDS. José Abreu hit three home runs and eight RBI for the Astros.
