re: Bregman with 2 HR, one of them a walk off

If Bregman is on the Hooks he is on the fast track.

As a matter of interest the Corpus Christi Hooks are the Astros AA team. I believe their AAA team is in CA or somewhere.

Because CC is so closed to Houston they put the best young players there where they can visually watch them easily and often, and confer with the managers about them.

The players they might call up for help in a season are still on the AAA for the competition.

When players on the Big League Team who are injured can play again they are sent to the Hooks to play a few games and get the rust off.

Though the Hooks are AA, they are a very important team in the Astro organization.

he's in AA because the highest he played last year was high A. they dont just jump you to AAA.


AAA is fresno but they played half of their games out west.

yea just depends but that is generally overstated.. If they outplay AA and there is no room for them in the majors, they'll move them up to AAA.
