LHP Geronimo Franzua (18)
Yes, it is one of the cooler names in the Astros minor league system. Franzua, despite going 0-6 in his debut season with the DSL Astros, did pretty well, particularly considering that he was only 17. Over 10 starts, this non-drafted free agent from the Dominican Republic, pitched 39.1 innings with a 4.12 ERA.
