Happy Birthday - 11/2

No future Astros and only one former Astro with a birthday today

UT Orlando Merced (45)
Merced played for Houston in 2001 to 2003 at the end of his career.  He hit .262 for the Astros over 340 games, slightly lower than his career batting average of .277.  While with the Pirates in 1991, Merced came in second in voting for the NL Rookie of the Year, losing out to Jeff Bagwell.
