HITTER - KEVIN ALVAREZ

Alvarez was one of the Astros prize international signings in January, inking a deal for $2 million. He has been great in the Dominican Summer League this season but has been even better over the last few weeks hitting .371 with 9 walks to 4 strikeouts over his last 19 games. Overall he is hitting .330 with 7 doubles, 2 home runs, 24 runs batted in and 12 BB/11 SO in 30 games. A great start for now one the Astros top prospects.
