How Houston Texans could feel major tremors from Lamar Jackson trade (and vice versa)

With reports popping up about the possibility of the Indianapolis Colts making a trade for Lamar Jackson, we discuss how he would change life for the Colts and how that would impact the Houston Texans.

Plus, would the Colts be better off with Bryce Young or CJ Stroud? And better yet, would the Texans be in a better situation with Jackson over drafting a rookie QB?

Also, it's crazy to think that the Texans trading Deshaun Watson could be the catalyst that lands Jackson in Indy.

Be sure to check out the video above as we lay it all out!

The Houston Astros haven't counted on their catchers to deliver much offensive production in recent years, with defensive specialist Martin Maldonado being their primary catcher for the last few seasons. But top hitting prospect Yainer Diaz is making a case to get more playing time behind the plate and at first, based on his ability to swing the bat.

Until recently, he hasn't been able to get any meaningful playing time. Even David Hensley, who was optioned to Sugar Land a few weeks ago, has more plate appearances than Diaz this season.

So how does manager Dusty Baker find more opportunities for Diaz? Should he use him more often as a DH, along with getting time at first base and catcher?

And what does that mean for Jose Abreu, Martin Maldonado, and to a lesser extent, former first round pick and Sugar Land Space Cowboy catcher, Korey Lee?

Plus, considering how good the Astros outfielders have been this year, does the team need to grab another bat before the trade deadline?
