Astros: Jon Singleton Placed on Waivers

Jon Singleton, one of the components of the Hunter Pence trade, has experienced an up-and-down roller coaster as a member of the Astros. He has went from being a top prospect to signing a controversial five-year, $10 million contract to now being removed from the 40-man roster altogether.

The Singleton arc for the Astros has been an interesting one to say the least. Once a top prospect in the Houston system, he has been playing in Triple-A for the majority of the past two seasons. In fact, he only has appeared in only 114 major league games.
