HOUSTON – MLB executives once secretly feared this would happen. Now, it’s happening – and faster than anyone could have imagined.

The Houston Astros – once a symbol of strength, character and the pinnacle of competition – are on the decline, as both their on-field performance and the trust of their fans have collapsed. And the most worrying thing? Everything MLB once feared about the Astros… is coming true.

From a “winning machine” to a broken team
Injuries, declining performance, internal turmoil – that’s what’s been besieging the Astros this season. After years of being at the top of the league, Houston is now struggling to get out of the bottom of the standings. A series of key pitchers such as Cristian Javier, José Urquidy, Lance McCullers Jr. are all absent for long periods due to injuries. The offense – once feared by the entire league – is now inconsistent, and constantly losing its edge.

“They’re not themselves anymore. And the scariest thing is that they may never be the same again,” said one veteran coach, speaking anonymously.

Haunted by the past and uncertain future
After the cheating scandal in 2017, the Houston Astros have tried to regain their image with top performances. But now, with what’s happening, people are starting to wonder if this decline is the real end of an empire?

Once-iconic stars – like Jose Altuve or Alex Bregman – are no longer able to maintain their “invincible” form. And while there are still explosive individuals like Yordan Alvarez or Kyle Tucker, it’s clear that Houston no longer has the balance that once made their brand.

Should MLB prepare for a post-Astros era?
The question that the league organizers and experts are asking now is no longer “When will the Astros revive?” – but: “If they can’t, who will replace them? And will the most controversial empire in modern MLB history collapse quietly or will it bring chaos?”
