Astros Fall to the Blue Jays 8-3
The Astros fielded a roster of mostly top tier prospects today against the Blue Jays’ mostly OD roster, with predictable results.
In the race for fifth starter/long reliever, one of those prospects, Colton Gordon staked a legitimate claim today. It wasn’t just his 3.2 innings, allowing only one run, (a homer to Bo Bichette) allowing two hits and a walk with three Ks. The fact that he got such a long look and looked legitimate against for-real major leaguers bodes well for his future somewhere on the Astros at some point in 2025.
