Baseball America Releases Astros Midseason Prospect Update
Baseball America is one of the best sites to follow for prospects information. Now that the All-Star game is over they are releasing their midseason updated top 10 prospects for each team.
Here is the list:
1. Alex Bregman, 3B/SS
2. Francis Martes, RHP
3. Joseph Musgrove, RHP
4. Kyle Tucker, OF
5. David Paulino, RHP
6. Derek Fisher, OF
7. Albert Abreu, RHP
8. Teoscar Hernandez, OF
9. Colin Moran, 3B
10. Daz Cameron, OF
It is obvious that Alex Bregman is the #1 prospects in the Astros system, and easily a top 5 prospect in all of baseball. Martes is only 20 years old and holding his own in AA. He had a rough April but has really turned it around. Love the aggressive rankings of both Abreu and Hernandez. Abreu is a young flamethrower for Quad Cities who has struck out 84 in 69.1 innings Teoscar is one of my favorite prospects and he had put together a great season between AA/AAA. He has a chance to help the Astros as early as this year.
Baseball America also gives a quick run down of the 2016 season so far as well as a 2019 projected lineup. Baseball America also has a paid portion which gives any more information, and well worth the money.
