Houston Astros Spring Training Schedule 2024: Start Date, Key Matchups, Tickets, TV Listings, and more

Spring training is on the horizon, and fans of the Houston Astros will be looking forward to seeing their team in action ahead of the 2024 MLB season. The Astros are among the best teams in baseball, and there is reason for optimism that the team could be competing for the World Series down the stretch.

While that is a long way down the line, up first is Spring Training, in which the Astros will play their first game on Feb. 24. So, let's take a look at Houston's schedule and key matchups, as well as how and where to watch them play.

Houston Astros Spring Training Schedule 2024

The Houston Astros will kick off their spring training games against the Washington Nationals on February 24 at Ballpark of the Palm Beaches at 6.05 p.m. ET.

Other than the Nationals, the Astros will face the St. Louis Cardinals, New York Mets, Detroit Tigers, Miami Marlins and Philadelphia Phillies during spring training.

While all of these games will be interesting for Houston fans, given the importance of seeing the strength of their roster without Dusty Baker as manager, perhaps the games against the Phillies are the ones to watch. With Philadelphia a potential dark horse for the World Series, this could be something of an early litmus test for both teams.
