Also said he's done some catching. It was a very good interview. He's going to be an amazing addition to Club Astros

This kid is insane...AAA is literally a joke for him. It's like me playing my 11 month old son in Madden. I think Im more excited about him than I was with Correa...but I cant really remember. Either way, good things are going to happen for the Astros once he's on the big boy club.
I sure hope he doesn't start his career with an 0 for 8. People will be calling him a bust and that Worth should get his ABs.
Tomorrow has the be the last day he spends in the minors. This is getting ridiculous, especially when the bottom half of the lineup is pretty suspect after you get past Valbuena in the 5th spot.
Got the start today at third and tomorrow he will start at Left. I'd imagine they'd at least give him some time at the new positions before calling him up
With the availability of a DH there shouldn't be a problem fitting him into the defensive lineup. Valbuena can DH, Margo slides over to 1st.
Can't wait for only both Bregman and Gurriel to be up so that we only see one of Rasmus/Gomez/Marisnick in the lineup daily.
I listen to a lot of local sports radio, they always gloss over the DH position. There are many, many options to bring him up this week and get into the lineup immediately.
