Cavan Biggio is following in his father's footsteps.
The son of Astros legend Craig Biggio signed a minor league deal with Houston on Sunday.
The contract includes an invitation to spring training as a non-roster player.
Biggio spent 2025 with the Kansas City Royals, though he only played in 37 games and made just 83 plate appearances. His best season came during his rookie year with the Toronto Blue Jays in 2019, when he recorded 16 home runs and 48 RBIs over 100 games.
The 30-year-old Biggio has a career average of .223 to go along with 52 homers and 190 RBIs across seven seasons with the Royals, Blue Jays, Los Angeles Dodgers and Atlanta Braves.
Biggio's main asset during his big-league career has been his defensive versatility. He's played at every position except pitcher and catcher, including 219 starts at second base and 104 combined starts at all three outfield positions.
Craig Biggio, 60, spent 20 years with the Astros during his Hall of Fame career.
The Astros will play their first spring training game Feb. 21 against the Washington Nationals.
