The 2016 Houston Astros season was the 55th season for the Major League Baseball (MLB) franchise in Houston, Texas, their 52nd as the Astros, fourth in both the American League (AL) and AL West division, and 17th season at Minute Maid Park. They entered the season as a wild card qualifier with a second place finish in the AL West, losing to the eventual World Series champion Kansas City Royals in the American League Division Series (ALDS).

After a 7–17 start in the month of April, the Astros produced a winning record over their next four months, highlighted by an 18–8 record in June. After going 12–15 in September, the Astros were eliminated from playoff contention. They finished in third place in the AL West with a final record of 84–78, eleven games back of the division champion Texas Rangers. As of 2024, this was the last time the Astros had missed the playoffs. This was also the last time they did not reach at least the American League Championship Series (ALCS) until 2024.
