Baseball America tipped a cap to Tanner Bushue, who dominated last night for Lexington:
Last year it was Jordan Lyles motoring his way through the South Atlantic League for Lexington. This year it could be Bushue's turn to do the same. Bushue, the Astros' second-round pick out of high school in 2009, surrendered only one hit in 4 1/3 scoreless innings, striking out six and walking one in his full-season debut. The Astros have ranked dead last in our organizational talent rankings the last two years, but between two first-round picks in this year's draft and Bushue potentially keeping up this type of performance up all year, don't expect to see the Astros there again next year.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
