Carlos Correa's potential return as a second baseman illustrates the complications presented by Houston's roster construction. Those problems aren't going away, either, and it will be up to Houston's new general manager to solve them. Tyler Stafford and The Athletic's Chandler Rome discuss the biggest priority for whoever the Astros hire to be their GM — whether it is the aforementioned roster construction, thin farm system or simply knowing whether or not they have autonomy to make decisions.
