Houston Astros’ Prospect Ramon Laureano Turning Heads in AFL

When the 2016 season started, not too many Houston Astros fans knew too much about Ramon Laureano. The organization drafts so many players each year that it’s hard to remember each one until they make themselves known. This year, Laureano put himself on the map. Midseason, Jim Callis came on Talking Stros and admitted that he didn’t know that much about Laureano.

That was then. This is now. Laureano was drafted in the 16th round of the 2014 MLB draft out of Northeastern Oklahoma A&M. Two years after he was drafted, Laureano has risen through the ranks finishing in Double-A.
