With an emphasis on data and analytics on players, Luhnow drafted players such as Carlos Correa, Alex Bregman, Lance McCullers and Kyle Tucker. It took a few years, but Luhnow built the Astros into one of baseball’s teams beyond just that World Series win in 2017. The Los Angeles Angels are in the market for a new general manager, and Luhnow might be a candidate they would consider, according to CBS Sports. Once the baseball off-season commences, it remains to be seen if more GM openings will pop up, and whether Luhnow will get another crack.
