I have been doing a bit of crack research and I have drawn some comparisons of AStros Top prospects to other ML players for fun. here goes.
Jonathan Singleton---Justin Morneau
Jared Cosart--Jared WEaver
Delino Deshields JR--no current player compares, but he is very similar to Vince Coleman with more pop)
George Springer---Ryan Braun as a hitter, (Tori Hunter as a fielder)
Carlos Correa--Migeul Cabrera
Mike Foltynewiecz--Matt Cain
Jonathan Singleton---Justin Morneau
Jared Cosart--Jared WEaver

Mike Foltynewiecz--Matt Cain

I'm already making home made champ t-shirts. Not wildcard champs either.

Lyles is showing signs of all the tools to be an ace one day. 95mph fastball, plus slider, decent curve, and most of all he is gaining great confidence in his changeup which is a difference making pitch for most great pitchers. The kid is also still only 22. at 6'4 and 215 he has the physical build you want and mentally as a former FB player he is a bulldog.
The astros need to bring in a Dave Duncan type pitching coach to develop guys like this because they have everything you want in a big league ace.

Optimism at it's finest... though I'm sure there's a better term suited for the comparisons.

Tyger is really reaching in this OP. They suck. I forgot which poster said it, but he was right. All you astros fans buying into this farm system are being duped.
Oh and yes, I am an Astros fan an have been all my life. They went from okay, to play off baseball and a World Series appearance, with great players like bag well and biggio, to the disastros.

OK, so tell me, the kids in the system right now that are highly regarded, which ones aren't going to work out and why?

With the above statement, I don't believe you. Either that, or you're just dumb.

So youre expecting lineup with Morneau, Miggy, and Braun? And a couple Cy Young candidates in the rotation?
You'd be lucky if one of those guys turned out to be as good as you projected.
