Brantley has agreed to a $32 million, two-year contract with the Astros, a person familiar with the deal told The Associated Press. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity Wednesday, Jan. 20, because the contract, which is pending a successful physical, had not been announced.

There was speculation MLB teams may train at their home stadiums, but the Astros will once again be in West Palm Beach.

As noted by Astros PR, “workout dates for all clubs are subject to change based on Major League Baseball health and safety protocols.”

As for fans, the Astros have said a “limited number of fans” will be allowed to attend the spring training games. Details on how many will follow. There will be no fans in attendance during workouts, which is MLB’s league-wide policy this year.

More details are expected in the coming days.
