Eye Catching MiLB Starts

Fayetteville Woodpeckers

There’s little data on the bottom rung of the Astros’ full season ladder right now, as adverse weather conditions have limited the club to just four games, but a pair of blue chip talents have gotten off to strong starts that are encouraging, if difficult to draw conclusions from. Dauri Lorenzo, who received the club’s largest international bonus in 2019, has gotten his first taste of full season ball this year and has responded well, managing three singles in his first five plate appearances. A compact, switch hitting infielder, Lorenzo projects to stick up the middle somewhere, with second base probably being most likely.
