Oops! All Astros: Andrews Sosa & Angelo Martinez

Andrews Sosa is a five-foot-10, 160 lb. catcher. Born on January 7, 2005, Sosa signed his first professional deal with the Astros earlier this year. On July 19, he received his first assignment, and joined the DSL Astros Blue.

As you may imagine, Sosa’s track record is still very short. He’s played in 19 contests so far, and hit .233/.400/.256 with three RBI and four stolen bases. He’s played 58 innings behind the plate, catching 28 percent of basestealers and racking up a .964 fielding percentage.

On August 19, Sosa turned in his first three-hit game, going three-for-four with a pair of runs scored in a 7-1 win against the DSL Guardians Blue.
