Jose Siri Succeeding in Spring

During a period of time in which it has been difficult for non-MLB baseball players to garner much attention, new Astros Jose Siri has repeatedly made headlines for his DWL and spring training heroics. Most recently he found himself making the rounds on Twitter for an... unfortunate interaction with Yadier Molina during a game, but he has also generated a lot of excitement with his play. Once a top prospect in the Reds system, Siri has a wide range of big tools that made him an interesting low-risk signing for the Astros, and since being brought in, he’s been able to capitalize on them in a way he hasn’t since his low minors days, prompting hopes that he could be a bench piece at some point during the 2021 season.
