Happy Birthday - 12/10

LHP Kristian Bueno (23)
Originally from Corpus Christi, Bueno was drafted by Milwaukee in the 9th round in 2007 and was signed by Houston as a free agent in 2010.  In his stint with Tri-City he had a 6.10 ERA and a 2.177 WHIP as he was unable to duplicate his 2.87 ERA from 2010 with the GCL Astros.  This lefty did manage to lower his ERA against his fellow lefties to 2.84.  He is currently a free agent.

OF Chris Epps (23)
Drafted in the 45th round in 2011 out of Clemson, this Georgia native had a .304 BA in 35 games with the GCL Astros and a .212 BA in 19 games with Tri-City.  His combined batting line was .274/.422/.457/.880 and he hit .385 vs. lefties.
