That was a great read. This team really needed that veteran presence last year.

There is absolutely no reason Castro should be listed as top 5 catchers for the Astros. dude had one decent year and a bunch of average to below-average years.

shite, I'd put Tony Eusebio on that list before Castro.

Good. I want them to do away with that house music shite and get serious about winning.

The only music that should be played in the club house is Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden.

Astros signed a Mexican league minor league catcher yesterday.

The Houston Astros have constantly done their homework in Mexican League Baseball under general manager Jeff Luhnow, who was born in Mexico City. That continued this week with the team signing catcher Luis Mario Romero Barajas out of the Northern League of Mexico.

Some minor news from last few days

-The Astros and Dallas Keuchel settled on a one-year deal worth $9.15 million to avoid arbitration.

-Morgan Ensburg is now the manager for tri cities

Also..

quote:

Righthander Francis Martes, the Astros' top pitching prospect, is among 18 minor leaguers the team has invited to major league spring training.

Martes will be joined by Garrett Stubbs, the team's top catching prospect, and two of the organization's closer outfield prospects, Derek Fisher and Ramon Laureano.

Righthanders Edison Frias, Jordan Jankowski, Tyson Perez, Cy Sneed and Aaron West and lefthanders Brian Holmes and C.J. Riefenhauser are the other minor league pitchers invited. Third baseman J.D. Davis, first baseman Jon Singleton, utility infielder Reid Brignac, catchers Juan Centeno and Tyler Heineman and outfielders Jon Kemmer and Alejandro Garcia round out the position players.

Singleton, the former top prospect, was removed from the 40-man roster in November. He is still guaranteed $4.5 million over the next two years of the controversial five-year, $10-million extension he signed in 2014.

Riefenhauser, Brignac and Centeno each signed minor league deals with the Astros earlier this offseason.

The Astros have 28 pitchers and 30 position players scheduled to attend big league camp. Pitchers and catchers report to the team's new facility in West Palm Beach, Fla., on Feb. 14. The first full-squad workout is set for Feb. 18.

At least Luhnow could have called and said he was from the Yankees!
