Only because he's only 19 years old, this is his first full season of pro-ball and the Astros are still monitoring his pitch count. One of the...
Stupid competitive A round.
(Raises hand high)
If Manaea falls to #40, it will more than likely be for injury concerns. It's been reported that Manaea has a labrum tear in his hip, which would...
Blackley has been unimpressive in his short time with the Astros. Glad the Astros scored all those extra runs.
Springer was hit by a pitch, probably pulled him for precautionary reasons.
Proving that he can pitch on the road as well as he does at home will go a long way to helping his trade value.
IMHO I think Appel wants to be the first overall player taken in the draft. Houston was his home for the first twelve years of his life, so...
I'm interested to hear all the different pronunciations in the coming months. ;)
Interesting comments from Boras: ChronAstros Agent Scott Boras said he has no plans to overvalue potential 1.1 pick Mark Appel and back...
I put the link below earlier in this thread that helps explain why Rodon did not fare so well this season. I agree with cardpire that Rodon will...

Toussaint definitely looks intriguing, throwing 97 with his fastball, but he works 91-94mph. Unless he can pull a Dylan Bundy (who is hands down...
Rodon definitely has not been as sharp as his freshman year. Though he did accumulate a lot of innings, played for Team USA and then was shutdown...
Here's a link with video of Carlos Rodon and some other standouts that will be available for the 2014 draft. I really haven't watched a lot of...
Ed Wade tried to get a premium package for Bourn, but ended up settling for less. Here is a link:...
I disagree with the notion that you don't worry about position. You get less value from Kris Bryant is he becomes a DH. You have plenty of players...
