Baseball Reference

The 2026 Houston Astros season will be the 65th season for the Major League Baseball (MLB) franchise located in Houston, Texas, their 63rd as the Astros, 14th in both the American League (AL) and AL West division, and 27th at Daikin Park.

Former second baseman Jeff Kent, who appeared in two seasons for the Astros, was announced as an inductee into the Baseball Hall of Fame.

Houston is one of four host cities for the 2026 World Baseball Classic (WBC) tournament, with games to take place at Daikin Park.

Offseason

The Houston Astros concluded the 2025 season with an 87–75 record, narrowly missing the playoffs along with a fifth consecutive AL West division championship. This ended a franchise-record eight-consecutive seasons with a playoff appearance. They ranked second in the AL West and three games behind the division-champion Seattle Mariners. To qualify for the playoffs as a Wild Card, the Astros had tied the Detroit Tigers with identical 87–75 records for the third and final Wild Card position. However, as Detroit won the season series, they retained the tiebreaker to qualify instead of Houston.[1]

Former second baseman Jeff Kent, who appeared in the 2003 and 2004 seasons for the Astros, was announced as an inductee into the Baseball Hall of Fame, selected through the Contemporary Baseball Era committee. During Kent's latter stage with Houston,[2] the club won their first-ever playoff series, the National League Division Series (NLDS), to advance to their third National League Championship Series (NLCS). During that playoff run, Kent batted .234/.333/.532 with three home runs and 10 runs batted in (RBI) in 10 games.[3]

The 2026 World Baseball Classic (WBC) will take place in Tokyo, Miami, San Juan, Puerto Rico, and Houston. In Houston, Daikin Park will host all 10 Pool B games from March 6–11, 2026, and the quarterfinals.[4]
