Astros and LHP J.A. Happ avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $2.35 million contract.
Happ was arbitration-eligible for the first time this winter. The 29-year-old southpaw was a massive disappointment for the Astros last season, posting a 5.35 ERA and 134/83 K/BB ratio over 156 1/3 innings. Still, he’s expected to enter spring training with a rotation spot.
