I keep following Roddery Munoz, the former Rule 5 pick who was sent back to the Reds and then returned to the Houston organization. I give him this–he didn’t get discouraged and keeps pitching pretty well in Sugar Land. He has a K/9 over 14 and a BB/9 in the low 2’s. Could we see him back in the Astros’ bullpen at some point? I think so–particularly if the Astros trade some of their relievers at the mid season trade deadline.
