Happy Birthday - 6/26

OF Grant Hogue (26)
Drafted by Houston in the 35th round in 2009 out of Mississippi State, Hogue has struggled with staying off the DL so far this season. Starting the season on the DL with a hand injury, Hogue wasn't activated at Lancaster until May 30th. After going on a 10-game tear in which he hit .571/.613/.786, he ended up back on the DL with a hamstring injury. His career minor league batting line to date is .287/.359/.355. He was just activated from the DL on Monday but didn't see any action in Monday's game.
