The Houston Astros remain active in free agency and are reportedly set to meet with former Chicago Cubs All-Star Willson Contreras. The two teams almost completed a deal for the catcher at the trade deadline, but could not reach an agreement. Now, the Astros are back trying to acquire the three-time All-Star.The Astros have already made a splash in free agency by signing 2020 MVP Jose Abreu. Abreu, formerly of the Chicago White Sox, was an instant upgrade to their roster. Willson Contreras would not be in the same situational trade as Abreu. He will likely split playing time with current Astros catcher Martin Maldonado.Bleacher Report shared the news of this upcoming meeting on Twitter.Bleacher Nation@BleacherNationThe Astros are reportedly going to meet with Willson Contreras next week at the Winter Meetings, so that might be getting serious: bleachernation.com/cubs/2022/11/2…1087The Astros are reportedly going to meet with Willson Contreras next week at the Winter Meetings, so that might be getting serious: bleachernation.com/cubs/2022/11/2… https://t.co/0NwdMBxcgDThe Houston Astros' pursuit of Willson Contreras is saddening for Chicago Cubs fans.

Even after leading the American League in wins and winning the World Series, they are looking to upgrade. This is the mark of a franchise that has designs on being the next great MLB dynasty. An addition like Willson Contreras would certainly help them reach that lofty goal.LMSloveschampagne@grapeloverchiWhich one of you pissed off the Astros? #Cubs #WhiteSox twitter.com/bleachernation…Bleacher Nation@BleacherNationThe Astros are reportedly going to meet with Willson Contreras next week at the Winter Meetings, so that might be getting serious: bleachernation.com/cubs/2022/11/2…1097The Astros are reportedly going to meet with Willson Contreras next week at the Winter Meetings, so that might be getting serious: bleachernation.com/cubs/2022/11/2… https://t.co/0NwdMBxcgDWhich one of you pissed off the Astros? #Cubs #WhiteSox twitter.com/bleachernation…Tyler@RunningFlannelMe a year ago: how fun would it be if Willson Contreras and Jose Abreu were on the same team??*monkey's paw curls* twitter.com/BleacherNation…Bleacher Nation@BleacherNationThe Astros are reportedly going to meet with Willson Contreras next week at the Winter Meetings, so that might be getting serious: bleachernation.com/cubs/2022/11/2…986The Astros are reportedly going to meet with Willson Contreras next week at the Winter Meetings, so that might be getting serious: bleachernation.com/cubs/2022/11/2… https://t.co/0NwdMBxcgDMe a year ago: how fun would it be if Willson Contreras and Jose Abreu were on the same team??*monkey's paw curls* twitter.com/BleacherNation…Arlington Heights Bears, Sounds good.@j_m_friedman@BleacherNation Now this im happy about. Come come to Houston.@BleacherNation Now this im happy about. Come come to Houston.Contreras will be heading into his eighth MLB season, and could be doing so as a member of the Houston Astros. His offensive and defensive prowess would be a great fit for any team he chooses to sign with. There is still hope among some Cubs fans that he will choose to return, but that hope is dwindling. They simply cannot promise a winning situation like the Astros can.Dylan Webster@DWeb12409I think I'm gonna be sick twitter.com/BleacherNation…Bleacher Nation@BleacherNationThe Astros are reportedly going to meet with Willson Contreras next week at the Winter Meetings, so that might be getting serious: bleachernation.com/cubs/2022/11/2…1097The Astros are reportedly going to meet with Willson Contreras next week at the Winter Meetings, so that might be getting serious: bleachernation.com/cubs/2022/11/2… https://t.co/0NwdMBxcgDI think I'm gonna be sick twitter.com/BleacherNation…Eric Cooper@_2jss@BleacherNation Outside of going back to the cubs this would be the least harmful to my heart@BleacherNation Outside of going back to the cubs this would be the least harmful to my heartJustin Fields/Eloy Jimenez enthusiast@BenTheSoxFan@BleacherNation Astros just love taking guys from Chicago apparently@BleacherNation Astros just love taking guys from Chicago apparentlyThe Astros have made it clear they plan to be big spenders this offseason. The only question left is how many players they will end up adding.The Houston Astros have to be a tempting destination for Willson ContrerasHouston Astros World Series ParadeContreras already knows what it's like to play for a contending team, and the Astros can help him get back there. It is never easy for a free agent to leave the team they started with, but the Astros are an alluring option.Willson Contreras could end up signing with the defending World Series champions sooner rather than later.
