Prom, they will be lucky if 3or 4 of the minor league guys really pan out to be more than average big leaguers in the next two years. can't put all egggs in that basket.
Sure, some of the bigger names like Singleton won't pan out. But then you'll always have smaller names who end up being better than you expect (Fontana, Tucker, etc.)
Where else besides the farm should the Astros put their eggs? The FA market is not very inviting for a team this far out from competing. did you want them to sign Cano? What about Granderson? 1 year of Tim Hudson? none of those guys help this team.
Just keep drafting well and see where the prospects fall.

to add to this, the international market has been awesome recently regarding pitchers on the cheap. See Yu Darvish, Hyun Jin Ryu. However, the Tanaka contract fricked that. THe next Japanese pitcher to post will probably be Kenta Maeda. He doesn't have near the upside of Tanaka or Darvish. I'd bet he can be had for 8-10 mil AAV. Wouldn't be a bad deal to get a Darvish type package for him IMO.
