With all their injuries, the Astros might call him up next week.

Heckuva athlete. Can really run for a big guy. I was hoping he wouldn’t be drafted high and would come back. I want to say he was a catcher in high school but we never really got to see his defensive game

Another $2500 and he gets the mil. That’s pocket change for the Astro’s.

Rosepine. Surprised his last name isn't Sepulvado or Ebarb like 75% of mid-western Louisiana.

Glad he got paid. He’s still got some development and a position to figure out, but the swing really matured as the year went along.

I remember the first time I heard his name. He was inserted as a pinch runner. I automatically just thought he was some fast wiry little white dude. I didn’t think much about it until I found out the dude was 66 225 and then I became quite interested in his development as a player..
