2010 Top 50 Twins Prospects | #42 | Liam Hendriks

Andre Nolan Dawson was the only player on the 2010 Hall of Fame Ballot that was announced to be inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame, which was announced yesterday. Dawson has been waiting over a decade to receive the prestigious call to the hall and for over 20 years Dawson had done nothing but earn what he’s become, a legend.

Now this is what I'm talking about!

As reported on the Houston Astros' website, Brett Myers has signed a one year contract worth around five million dollars. This signing not only brings another veteran presence with playoff experience to the ball-club, it also relieves the pressure on the younger starters, such as Yorman Bazardo and Felipe Paulino that were expected to step up into the rotation. 

From this point, and looking at past performances, I believe that the starting rotation will look something like this when the Astros begin the season:

Roy Oswalt

I am not an Astros fan. I'm actually a Phillies fan, but I decided that to improve my knowlede of the minor leagues, I would make a top 10 list for each team. My Oakland and Arizona lists are done, and I moved on to the 'Stros. Since I am not a fan of the team, you may sit there at some point and say, "How do you not have ______ on the list?" If that's the case, tell me PLEASE. If I neglected to mention something about a certain prospect, please let me know. I now present to you the 2010 Houston Astros Top 10 Prospects (from a Phillies fan point of view).

As the Boston Red Sox' recent flurry of transactions seems to be dying down, there is still one hole remaining on the roster: another reliever.

The Red Sox lost two solid veteran relievers in Takashi Saito and Billy Wagner this offseason, the Red Sox' current bullpen seems to be missing one piece.

The Red Sox have not been linked to anyone mentioned in the article, this is just hypothetical.

This article is in no particular order.

If you think I've left off a reliever, leave me a comment and I'll add him.
