AAA - Omaha 7 Oklahoma City 0
Jarred Cosart's command failed him for a third straight start as he walked 4 hitters in 5+ innings and the RedHawks (33-27) suffered a 7-0 loss at the hands of the Storm Chasers. Oklahoma City managed just 5 hits in the game and a Brett Wallace error led to 4 unearned runs as not much went right for the visitors. Kevin Chapman and C.J. Fick each tossed scoreless innings in relief.
AA - San Antonio 7 Corpus Christi 4
George Springer hit his 18th home run and stole his 18th base, but the Missions rallied for 4 runs against Sergio Escalona in a 7-4 win over the Hooks (38-24). Erik Castro and Jonathan Meyer each homered and Meyer extended his hitting streak to 13 games, but Jonathan Singleton was 0 for 3 dropping his average with the Hooks to .118 and Justin Maxwell took an 0 for 4 and is now hitless in 17 rehab atbats. Nick Tropeano tossed 3 shutout innings in relief and fanned 5 in a losing effort.
Advanced A - San Jose 5 Lancaster 3
Joe Sclafani had 2 more hits and 2 runs batted in, but the JetHawks once again fell to the Giants, this time by a score of 5-3. Brady Rodgers suffered the loss in relief dropping to 5-3 on the year when he allowed 2 runs in the 7th after Lancaster had rallied to tie the game at 3. Delino DeShields was 1 for 3 with a walk, but was caught stealing for the 9th time this season.
Low A - Peoria 9 Quad Cities 1
Jake Westbrook, making a rehab start for the Chiefs, completely overmatched the River Bandits lineup limiting them to 1 run on 4 hits in 7 innings of work as Quad Cities (34-27) was blown out 9-1. Ariel Ovando had an rbi double in 3 trips and Rio Ruiz added a double, but that was about it for highlights in a game that was all Peoria from the outset. Juan Minaya made his first start of the season and suffered the loss allowing 4 runs in 4 innings of work.

Down on the Farm - 6/3/13
AAA - Oklahoma City 8 Albuquerque 4
Jarred Cosart struggled with his control and failed to make it through 5 innings, but the RedHawks (32-24) still managed to defeat the Isotopes 8-4. Cosart walked 5, hit 2, and threw just 49 strikes out of 99 pitches as he ended up getting charged with 4 runs in 4 1/3 innings. The bullpen didn't fair much better walking 6 more, but they managed to toss 4 2/3 innings of shutout ball despite their wildness. Fernando Martinez led the offense with 3 rbis including a 2-run single to break a 4-4 tie, while Carlos Perez and Andrew Simunic each had 3 hits in the game. Jonathan Villar went 2 for 4 and stole his 17th base of the season.
Advanced A - Stockton 4 Lancaster 2
Preston Tucker had his 17 game hitting streak snapped and the JetHawks (35-22) saw their late rally fall short in a 4-2 loss to the Ports. Matt Duffy was 3 for 3 with a double and Delino DeShields was 2 for 4 with a double and an rbi, but the JetHawks were just 1 for 8 with runners in scoring position. Kyle Hallock tossed 3 hitless innings of relief in a losing effort.
Low A - Quad Cities 2 Beloit 1
Rio Ruiz drove in both River Bandits runs and Mike Hauschild tossed 4 scoreless innings of relief as Quad Cities (32-24) edged out the Snappers 2-1. Jonathan Singleton was 1 for 3 with a double and a walk and scored both runs and Colton Cain turned in a solid start allowing just a run on 4 hits in 5 innings. Carlos Correa went 0 for 4 and is 1 for his last 13 lowering his average on the year to .275.
Dominican Summer League - DSL Astros 3 DSL Mariners 2
Centerfielder Luis Payano reached base 4 times with 2 singles and 2 walks and led the DSL Astros (1-1) to their first win of the season as they defeated the DSL Mariners 3-2. After getting shutout for 6 innings, the Astros broke through for 2 runs in the 7th and a run in the 9th when Payano singled home pinch runner Jean Estrella. Reliever Angel Heredia earned the win after throwing 2 1/3 shutout innings in which he didn't allow a hit, walked one, and fanned five. Juan Hernandez started and allowed one earned run in 5 innings of work.

The Web of Trades
A look at what the trades of the last few seasons have netted us:
Roy Oswalt, Pedro Feliz and Brandon Lyon turned into SS Jonathan Villar, 1B Brett Wallace, RHP Asher Wojciechowski, LHP David Rollins, RHP Joe Musgrove, C Carlos Perez, RHP Kevin Comer and LHP Theron Geith. Ok, so this is a series of trades that put together netted us 8 prospects. First, Roy Oswalt was traded to the Phillies for J.A. Happ, Villar, and outfielder Anthony Gose. The Astros then immediately flipped Gose to the Blue Jays for Wallace. Fast forward to last year and Happ gets packaged with Lyon and Carpenter (acquired for Pedro Feliz in 2010) to Toronto for Wojo, Rollins, Musgrove, Perez, Comer, Ben Francisco and Francisco Cordero. And then Francisco gets sent to Tampa Bay for Geith. So if you're keeping score, Houston got 5 of their current top 20 prospects (Villar-12, Wojo-15, Comer-17, Musgrove-19 and Perez-20), Brett Wallace who's currently hitting .315 for the RedHawks, David Rollins who has a respectable 3.96 ERA and nearly a strikeout per inning for Lancaster, and Geith who's 5-0 with a 2.35 ERA in 17 games for the JetHawks. Not a bad haul.
Lance Berkman and Fernando Rodriguez turned into UT Jimmy Paredes, RHP Kyle Weiland, 1B/OF Chris Carter, RHP Brad Peacock and C Max Stassi. This was another series of trades on top of trades. Berkman was moved to the Yankees for Mark Melancon and Paredes. After a year as the Astros closer, Melancon was traded to the Red Sox for Jed Lowrie and Kyle Weiland. Lowrie was then packaged with Fernando Rodriguez to the A's for Peacock, Carter and Stassi. Paredes and Carter are currently every day players for the Astros, Peacock was in the Opening Day Starting Rotation, Weiland was in the Opening Day Rotation a year ago before getting hurt and Stassi is currently ranked #16 among Astros prospects while hitting .286 with 9 doubles in 19 games for the Hooks.
Hunter Pence turned into 1B Jonathan Singleton, RHP Jarred Cosart, RHP Josh Zeid and RF Domingo Santana.
As Cosart (#4 Prospect) and Singleton (#1 Prospect) get closer to contributing to the Astros this trade looks better and better, but the afterthoughts in this deal have been producing as well. Zeid is 3-0 in 21 games for Oklahoma City, has 27 strikeouts in 22 1/3 innings and is holding opposing hitters to a .189 average. And then Santana, just 20 years old, is an intriguing blend of speed and power who homered 23 times and drove in 97 runs for the JetHawks last year. In 2013 he has 9 homers including a 3-homer game and 6 steals for the Hooks. He's currently ranked 13th among Astros prospects.
Michael Bourn turned into RHP Paul Clemens and LHP Brett Oberholtzer. Juan Abreu and Jordan Schafer didn't pan out, but Paul Clemens has become a mainstay in the Astros pen this year, and Oberholtzer made his Major League debut against the Indians in April.
Chris Johnson turned into 3B Bobby Borchering and 1B/OF Marc Krauss. Borchering hasn't played a game yet in 2013, but Krauss has has posted a .402 on base percentage in his first full year of AAA with 8 homers and 31 runs batted in.
Carlos Lee turned into 3B Matt Dominguez and RHP John Ely. Lee went to the Marlins for Dominguez and lefty pitcher Rob Rasmussen and then Rasmussen was sent to L.A. for Ely. Ely unfortunately went down with an arm injury after just one appearance this year (4 scoreless innings and a save), but Dominguez has solidified himself as one of baseball's best defensive third basemen and he's shown some power to boot.
Jeff Keppinger turned into RHP Henry Sosa and RHP Jason Stoffel. Sosa's still pitching in Korea, but Stoffel has been lights out in 2013 allowing just 7 hits in 16 1/3 innings since his promotion to AAA. His combined ERA between Corpus Christi and Oklahoma City is 1.52.
Wilton Lopez turned into RHP Alex White and RHP Alex Gillingham. Both Alex's are out with injuries as White made the team, but was hurt in the final scrimmage before Opening Day and Gillingham appeared in just 3 games for Lancaster before going down himself.
Wandy Rodriguez turned into CF Robbie Grossman, LHP Rudy Owens and LHP Colton Cain. Grossman got his first AAA action this year, and logged 28 games for the Astros following injuries to Justin Maxwell and J.D. Martinez. He only hit .198 for Houston, but he showed an ability to draw walks (16). The 18th ranked prospect in the Astros organization has been rock solid for the RedHawks hitting .299 with a .432 on base percentage. Owens, like Ely, was the victim to an early season arm injury and logged only 4 appearances for the RedHawks this year in which he posted a 3.71 ERA before getting shut down for the year. Cain has struggled a bit this year going 2-5 with a 5.85 ERA for Quad Cities, but he's 2-2 with a 1.96 ERA in his last 6 appearances.
Jason Bourgeois and Humberto Quintero turned into Kevin Chapman. Chapman posted a 2.64 ERA in 49 appearances for the Hooks in 2012, but he's struggled a bit with his control in 2013 walking 18 hitters in 22 innings. He has a 4.09 ERA, but opposing hitters are batting just .203 against him.

Down on the Farm - 5/23/13
AAA - Fresno 4 Oklahoma City 1
Jarred Cosart logged a quality start, but the RedHawks bats were silent as they fell to Fresno by a score of 4-1. Brett Wallace reached base 4 times (2 singles, 2 walks) and raised his average since his demotion to .319, and Austin Wates added a pair of doubles and drove in the only run for the RedHawks (27-19), but they were about the only bright spots on offense. Philip Humber made his second appearance for the RedHawks, but struggled to find the strike zone and walked 2 of the 4 hitters he faced and hit a third before getting relieved by Kevin Chapman.
AA - Corpus Christi 10 Northwest Arkansas 4

Low A - Wisconsin 7 Quad Cities 4

Down on the Farm - 5/12/13
AAA - Salt Lake 9 Oklahoma City 3
Jarred Cosart was tremendous once again, but his quality start was wasted by the bullpen as the RedHawks (22-14) relievers surrendered 8 runs over the final 2 innings in a 9-3 loss to the Bees. Cosart allowed just a run on 2 hits in 6 innings of work lowering his AAA ERA to 2.08, but Kevin Chapman and Rhiner Cruz couldn't hold the lead.
