Roster Moves
Houston/Oklahoma City
The Astros claimed utility player Steve Pearce off waivers from Baltimore. In order to make room on the 40-man roster for Pearce and for RHP Armando Galarraga, RHP Aneury Rodriguez and RHP Enerio del Rosario were outrighted (removed from the 40-man roster) to Oklahoma City. In order to make room on the active 25-man roster for Galarraga, LHP Fernando Abad was optioned to Oklahoma City. A corresponding move to the 25-man roster will have to be made before today's game in order to activate Pearce. Got all that? Phew.

Happy Birthday - 7/13
RHP Jose Trinidad (25)
Trinidad was originally signed as a non-drafted free agent out of the Dominican Republic by Houston in 2006 and is currently in his second full season in Lancaster. He has been extremely steady out of the bullpen, going 8-3 with a 2.22 ERA and a 1.271 WHIP. He has been even better than that in three spot starts in which he is 2-1 with a 1.13 ERA.
C Alfredo Gonzalez (20)
Gonzalez was a NDFA out of Venezuela who first played for the DSL team in 2009. After sitting out 2010, he played for the GCL Astros in 2011 and now again in 2012. So far in 2012, he is hitting .220/.273/.293 with a 36% caught stealing percentage.
Former Astros with birthdays today ~
C Robbie Wine (50)
A first round pick by the Astros in 1983, Wine only played in 23 games for Houston, hittiing .146/.186/.195.
C Don Bryant (71)
Bryant came to Houston as a Rule 5 pick from the Giants in December of 1968. In 46 games for the Astros in 1969 and 1970, he hit .193/.244/.241.
OF Joe Cannon (59)
Originally drafted by Houston in the first round in 1974, Cannon only played in 17 games for the Astros in 1978 and 1979, hitting .171/.171/.229.
OF Chris Jones (55)
A 25th round pick by the Astros in 1979, Jones hit .200/.286/.200 in 31 games.
Apparently, it is underachiever's day for our former Astros.

Minor League Schedule and Recaps
Friday's Games
Thursday's Results
DSL Astros over DSL Rays 11-4
I get to say something I haven't gotten to say about the DSL much yet this season - nice game! Johan Arias (W, 1-2) allowed two runs on seven hits over seven innings. Luis Reynosa (3x4, 3R), Yoel Silfa (3x5, 2-2B, 4RBI) and Pedro Coa (3x4, 2B) all had particularly fine outings at the plate.
GCL Marlins over GCL Astros 7-6 (Game 1)
The pitching was pretty bad in this one, but the offense did a pretty good job scraping across six runs on only four hits thanks in large part to poor play by the Marlins. Carlos Correa had the only extra base hit, a double. Kyle Redinger drove in two runs. Wallace Gonzalez stole home.
GCL Marlins over GCL Astros 3-1 (Game 2)
Andrew Walter and Alan Abreu had the best pitching outings with runless, hitless frames. Brett Phillips was a home run shy of hitting for the cycle.
Greeneville over Danville 5-2
Daniel Minor had a decent outing allowing two runs on six hits over four, but Mitch Lambson (W, 1-0) and Mike Hauschiled (S, 2) had outstanding relief performances. Mike Martinez hit a solo home run; Jimmy Howick was two-for-three with an RBI; and Jean Batista was one-for-four with an RBI.
Tri-City over Connecticut 5-2
And Tri-City just keeps winning with their sixth victory in a row. Joe Bircher had a good, albeit short (4IP) outing, followed by four scoreless innings from Juan Minaya (W, 1-1). Blake Ford pitched the ninth for his third save. Connecticut took the early lead but Tri-City came back in the sixth to take the lead and stayed there. Tri-City only had four hits but took advantage of poor play by the Connecticut team to supplement their sparse offensive output. Dan Gulbransen contributed an RBI triple and Austin Elkins, an RBI double.
Oklahoma City over Iowa 3-1
Aneury Rodriguez had a strong start, allowing only one run on eight hits over five innings, but it was Sergio Perez (W, 2-1) who got the win in relief with Mickey Storey getting his first save of the season. No fireworks in this one as the Redhawks only managed seven singles and an Angel Sanchez double. Jimmy Paredes had the only multi-hit game of the evening as he went two-for-four with an RBI.
Lancaster over Rancho Cucamonga 10-3
The bad news is that Lancaster is having more pitching woes as last night's probable starter, RJ Alaniz, was placed on the DL with shoulder soreness. The good news is that: a) Nick Tropeano is on the way from Lexington to join the Lancaster staff, and b) Jose Trinidad (W, 7-3) did a terrific job in a spot start in place of Alaniz last night, pitching seven shutout innings. George Springer was three-for-five with an RBI; Domingo Santana was two-for-four with a double and an RBI; and Jonathan Meyer was two-for-five with an RBI. Erik Castro hit his 11th home run for two RBIs and Telvin Nash struck out four times before hitting his 21st home run of the season.
Texas League North All-Stars over South All-Stars 3-1
Performances from Hooks players who made the All-Star team were mixed. The only position player to reach base was Jon Singleton with a walk. Ross Seaton gave up all three North runs in his one inning of work and was charged with the loss. But Jarred Cosart pitched a perfect inning, and Jason Stoffel and Kevin Chapman allowed one hit each with no runs.
Game of the Day
Lexington over Greensboro 11-8
Lexington really needed this one to right the ship after three straight losses. Jonas Dufek, who has been quite reliable for the Legends with four straight wins, had a rare bad outing, but Evan Grills (W, 3-1) pitched a terrific 3.2 innings and kept Greensboro at bay until the Legends hitters put up a six spot in the sixth to get back in the game. Two players that we need to see do well did do well. Jay Austin had a terrific night going four-for-five with two RBIs and he appears to be doing just fine since coming back from a hand injury. Brandon Meredith, three-for-six with two RBIs, has also started heating up and has now hit .359 over his last 10 games. Delino DeShields stole three bases to bring his season total to 54.
What went right: Good relief from Grills, Murilo Gouvea and Dayan Diaz kept the door open for the Legends to come back in a big way.
What went wrong: Justin Gominsky got a rude welcome back to Lexington as he went hitless in five at-bats.
Jonas Dufek - 1.2IP 9H 7R/6ER 0BB 2SO 1HR
Evan Grills - 3.2IP 5H 1R 1BB 1SO
Murilo Gouvea - 2.2IP 1H 0R 1BB 1SO
Dayan Diaz (S, 9) - 1IP 2H 0R 0BB 1SO
Delino DeShields - 2x4 2B BB 3R 3SB
Jordan Scott - 1x4 2B 2RBI BB R
Zach Johnson - 1x3 3BB 2R
Matt Duffy - 1x5 2B 2RBI SO
Jay Austin - 4x5 2B 2RBI BB R
Brandon Meredith - 3x6 2B 2RBI BB R
Roberto Pena - 2x6 RBI SO
Chan Moon - 1x3 3B RBI 2BB 2R SB
Player of the Day: Jay Austin gets the nod for his four-for-five night and for his success as he comes back from a hand injury suffered in spring training. He is now hitting .289/.400/.368.
Pitcher of the Day: Jose Trinidad came in for only his third start of the season on short notice and pitched seven shutout innings with one walk and two strikeouts. His ERA, after 24 appearances is 1.95.
