The GCL Astros concluded a mediocre season record-wise, but hosted a few high-upside prep draftees and international signees moving up the system.
If you look at the standings, the GCL Astros completed a fairly disappointing campaign this summer, finishing 19-41, good for second-to-last among all Gulf Coast teams. However, it's important to remember what the GCL really is. It's high school draftees getting their first taste of life away from home playing pro ball with a bunch of unknown people. Latin American bonus babies also being away from home for the first time, a few years younger than their prep counterparts, and overcoming an incomprehensible language barrier.
