The Astros still need both a general manager and manager, but also must grapple with the impending loss of their setup man, reliable southpaw reliever and only trade deadline acquisition. Tyler Stafford and The Athletic's Chandler Rome discuss the five players who won't return to the 2027 Astros, including longtime setup man Bryan Abreu, left-hander Steven Okert, backup catcher Christian Vázquez and center fielder Daulton Varsho. Will shortstop Jeremy Peña or Isaac Paredes join that list?
