Down on the Astros Farm: Lancaster Jethawks Update
The Houston Astros have plenty to be proud of down on the farm. Much of their vast talent collection is placed in Double-A Corpus Cristi to start 2015. However, some names that Astros fans should start learning are showcasing their talents with the Lancaster Jethawks (high-A), the reigning champions of the California League. The stacking of talent was part of the plan or “process” for Astros GM Jeff Luhnow. He wanted the talent-rich farm clubs to learn how to win together. They have been doing that, but Lancaster lost Carlos Correa, Lance McCullers Jr., Rio Ruiz, Teoscar Hernandez, Tony Kemp, Josh Hader and Mark Appel. So, who is there this year?
