Our Buddy Greg Rajan does some looking at the Hooks' roster to determine who should move up, who should be back, and who should, uh, not.
A quick spoiler alert, those who Rajan says should not return, with a pull from Rajan's comments in parentheses (click the link to see the whole article - well worth your read):
Jon Gaston: It’s become apparent his monster year in High-A was a product of Lancaster’s launching pad.
Kyle Greenwalt: Took his lumps as both a starter and reliever here, which might mean a ticket back to Lancaster.
Brad James: It’s time to cut the cord.
Blake King: Claimed off waivers from St. Louis and had an alarming number of walks.
T.J. Steele: Somewhere in Houston, there’s an Astros official who views him as a five-tool prospect. Hooks fans didn’t see that form in two seasons.
Jose Carlos Thompson: First-year pro might be best served by playing regularly at a lower level.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
