Happy Birthday to ~
RHP Jamaine Cotton (24)
Originally from the Virgin Islands, Cotton was drafted in the 15th round in 2010 out of Western Oklahoma State University. In 37 regular season appearances for Lancaster this season, Cotton was 2-4 with 12 saves, a 4.61 ERA and a 1.511 WHIP.
Two former Astros celebrate the day as well ~
2B Gary Sutherland (70)
Sutherland spent time with the Philadelphia and Montreal organizations before coming to Houston in 1972. He only played in 21 games for the Astros in 1972 and 1973, hitting .242/.277/.323, before moving on to have his most productive years with Detroit in the mid 70's.
RHP Doug Konieczny (63)
A first round pick by Houston in 1971, Konieczny played for the Astros in 1973 to 1975 and in 1977. In 44 games (38 starts), he was 7-18 with a 4.93 ERA and a 1.588 WHIP. Methinks he would have been right at home pitching alongside Asher Wojciechowski and Mike Foltynewicz.
