Let’s check in on the latest minor moves from around the game …
- The Astros signed Houston native C.J. Hinojosa to a minor league deal, per Robert Murray of FanSided (via Twitter). Hinojosa was actually drafted by the Astros in the 26th round of the 2012 draft, but instead chose to attend the University of Texas at Austin where he starred as a sophomore in the College World Series. After a disappointing junior season, he was then made an 11th round draft choice by the Giants in 2015. A versatile defender who can play all over the infield, he was ranked among the Giants’ top-30 prospects by Baseball America in both 2017 and 2018. Prior to the 2018 season, BA wrote, “He’s best when he’s spraying the ball around the field, and is especially pesky at poking line drives down the right-field line, but he has a lot of fringe-average to average tools and no real plus tool on his scouting report. He plays shortstop plausibly enough defensively to fill-in, but he lacks the range to play there everyday. Hinojosa missed the start of the 2017 season with a quad strain, but when he returned he went right back to looking like a future big league utility infielder.” He tore his Achilles during the 2017 season, but eventually returned to Double-A during the 2018 season where he slashed .261/.327/.360 across 283 plate appearances. The 26-year-old played independent ball in 2020.
nice depth pickup. could be a solid utility option.

How original
Seems like just one move is discussed in this article, and it’s about 1 person.
Lemme say something corny about the Astros sucking!!!!!!
Which was worse: The asteroid that took out the dinosaurs or the 2017 Astros scandal?!!??!?! Both, Cause both were done by the Astros!
There is an ancient myth that if you bang on a trash can 5 times, a star is born.

I know you think you’re funny, but you’re actually an idiot.
Well you’re not catching the sarcasm, so is that… reverse idiocy?
No Rangers. The “sarcasm” by definition is not sarcasm. You truly are an idiot and you are not and never will be funny. You’ll just remain an idiot.
HOF announcement at 6:00 pm today. Should no one be inducted into 2021 HOF (Schilling, Bonds, Clemens) … it’s MEDIA COLLUSION!
I think he is a perfect replacement for Aledmys Diaz. I think Diaz should be replaced (making too much money for not enough production)
Perfect definitely. Definitely replace the established vet who can play all over and has proven an ability to provide value with a never-was who’s never shown any tools above the AA level.
and hits with a wet noodle and is injured half the year.
