Houston Astros manager Joe Espada has been informed that his contract will not be renewed beyond this season, according to a report from Bob Nightengale of USA TODAY. Espada was given the choice to either finish out the season with the Astros or depart immediately, but he chose to stay. This decision comes a day after the Astros fired general manager Dana Brown, making Espada the second high-ranking casualty in 24 hours. Both Espada and Brown entered the 2026 season on expiring deals, and owner Jim Crane had already declined to commit to extending either man's contract.
