HOUSTON, TX – Effective today, the Houston Astros and General Manager Dana Brown have mutually agreed to part ways. Brown’s contract was set to expire at the end of the 2026 season.
Brown’s responsibilities will be transitioned to the Astros Assistant General Managers, Charles Cook, Gavin Dickey and Connor Huff, and to Senior Advisor Jeff Bagwell. Astros Owner and Chairman Jim Crane will oversee baseball operations through the transition period as the team continues to focus on the American League West Division race. Brown had served as the Astros GM since January 26, 2023.
“Over the past four seasons, Dana has helped our organization win two division titles and has led our baseball front office through key scouting, draft and development efforts,” Crane said. “On behalf of the Astros, I want to thank him for his commitment, energy, and contributions to our organization. We wish he and his family the best.”
“I want to thank Jim Crane for the opportunity to serve in my first role as an MLB General Manager,” Brown said. “The Astros organization and the fans have welcomed me and my family, and I am grateful to have called Houston home for the past four seasons. I wish the organization well and I look forward to the future as I continue my 36-plus years in professional baseball.”
