Point Blank
Joel Blank takes an in-depth look at the numbers of both Astros players and projects which player will end up with the better career. Correa recently stated that he is 100 percent after dealing with a back issue in 2018, but will that be enough for him to outperform Alex Bregman going forward?
According to multiple reports, the Texans are waiving LB Zach Cunningham. Cunningham was benched last Sunday for disciplinary reasons, which reportedly stemmed from a missed COVID test. Cunningham was also benched for a quarter earlier in the season for breaking team rules.
There were a lot of reasons for the #Texans to try to make it work with Zach Cunningham, who the previous regime gave a 4-year, $58M contract. It didn’t happen. Now, the team has a $12.8M dead cap hit next year. So much to fix and get past in Houston.

According to Ian Rapoport, the Texans will have to eat his 12.8 million dollar cap hit next season.
Cunningham started in seven of the 10 games he’s played this season recording 67 tackles and a forced fumble. The Texans are at a point where there's hardly anyone left on the team that has any name recognition with what's left of the fan base. And now the Texans have another position that will have to be addressed this offseason.
Cunningham will likely command a lot of attention from other teams interested in his services.
