    Apparently a couple of his homies didn't get the word that he was the #1 pick in the draft. :grin:

    Looks like he was a 3-year starter. Blew everyone away his freshman year, had a down sophomore season, and he rebounded nicely in his junior year. Elkins also looks like he has some pop in his bat.

    2010: 48 games (44 starts), .341/.411/.574, 15 2B, 1 3B, 8 HR, 39 RBI, 19 BB, 30 K, 5 SB

    2011: 52 games (all starts), .245/.355/.362, 5 2B, 3 3B, 4 HR, 27 RBI, 29 BB, 32 K, 13 SB (1 CS)

    2012: 56 games (all starts), .344/.427/.602, 14 2B, 8 3B, 9 HR, 44 RBI, 27 BB, 28 K, 7 SB (3 CS)

    Round 22, Pick 669: Kenny Long, LHP, Illinois State

    And he's the first player selected by the Astros that was not born in the 1990s. Marc Wik, who was drafted in the last round, is 1 day older than me.
