In case you haven’t noticed, the Astros have six top-100 prospects per MLB Pipeline. That’s quite good, especially considering there are only two teams with more top-100 prospects in baseball.
Here is the current list of Astros featured in the MLB Pipeline Top 100:
7. RHP Forrest Whitley
8. OF Kyle Tucker
44. 1B/OF Yordan Alvarez
62. RHP Josh James
81. Corbin Martin
97. J.B. Bukauskas
While the prospect rankings are partially subjective, the Astros are the only team among the top six to truly contend in the past two seasons.
