2015 Houston Astros Top Preseason Prospects
The Astros have an offensive heavy farm system, with Carlos Correa leading the way. Correa has the potential to be a superstar and be the face of the organization, something that Houston desperately needs, as they try to rebuild their reputation with their fans. In my eyes Houston took a risk when they drafted Mark Appel over Jon Gray, and I think it will come back to haunt them. The Astros have plenty of offensive talent and need to turn their focus to pitching.
