Things are SERIOUSLY looking up for the future if the Astros.

McCullers, Footy and (hopefully) Mark Appel in the rotation and Correa, Springer, Santana, Singleton, DeShields, Ruiz, etc. in the lineup, they might actually be competing in the very near future.

Now 4-7, 2B, RBI. Batting over .300 once again.

Also, Gallo hit his first 3B.

Sorry, but I don't see Folty ever being a solid part of a big league rotation. Hasn't impressed much at all since being drafted. Had to repeat Low A ball, which is never a good sign, and had a WHIP over 1.70 in the CAL-yes, it is the CAL, but gave up way too many baserunners.

McCullers seems to have potential, and Springer and Singleton should be big leaguers for sure. The Astros system looks better than recent years, but seems like it has a long ways to go still. Just my opinion here of course.

Matt Wisler promoted from Lake Elsinore to AA San Antonio.
