2B Yonathan Mejia (19)
Signed as a non-drafted free agent out of the Dominican Republic in 2009, the switch-hitting second baseman is in his second year with the Astros. In his first year with the GCL Astros in 2011, he put up some very good numbers with a line of .329/.357/.384/.781. and only three errors over 40 games.
OF George Springer (22)
A late signing, this 1st round 2011 draft pick out of the University of Connecticut barely had time to get his feet wet at Tri-City. He hit .179 with a .303 OBP and .393 SLG in 8 games with the Valley Cats. He will be participating in the fall instructional league at Kissimmee which starts this week.
