Former Astros MVP Takes Over For GM Dana Brown After Sudden Exit
The Houston Astros’ Hall of Fame slugger is taking over front office responsibilities after a surprising decision.
Houston Astros general manager Dana Brown was abruptly fired on September 30, 2025, amidst a challenging season for the organization. Brown had served as the team's GM since January 26, 2023, and his duties will now be shared among his three assistant general managers and senior advisor Jeff Bagwell. Brown's replacement by former Houston Astros MVP Jeff Bagwell is significant, as the four-time All-Star and Hall of Famer brings invaluable experience to the organization.
Bagwell, who won the 1994 NL MVP, is the franchise leader in home runs (449) and RBIs (1,529). His role expansion suggests he could potentially assume a more formal front office position in the future.
