The Houston Astros have appointed Brad Ausmus as their new manager, according to a report by Matt Young of the Houston Chronicle published on November 11, 2026. Ausmus most recently served as bench coach for the New York Yankees, a role he held through at least September 10, 2026, when he was photographed during batting practice before a game against the Colorado Rockies at Yankee Stadium.
The article examines where Ausmus's previous managerial stints went wrong. Ausmus previously managed the Detroit Tigers from 2014 to 2017 and the Los Angeles Angels in 2019, but the source does not provide further details on those tenures.
