    Like Roger Clemens, big right-hander who started in victories by both the Longhorns and Astros.

    He now qualifies for receiving a ring when we win the ALCS

    He is considered to have more upside than Gilbert - but he is more volatile. He reminds me a lot of Barry Larkin in his tool set - but he has a LOT to prove before even being a big leaguer.

    Make no mistake about it - Gomez can hit, he has a natural aptitude for it. He needs to get bigger, but he already is bigger and stronger than a year ago- as long as he stays healthy and out of trouble, he will be a good one.

    Does he hang out with the wrong crowd?

    Tough start for Corona and Metlon. Combined 1-23 to start the season. Bring them up they would fit right in with Bregman and Abreu.

    All I know is that he had an injury and a family issue that ended up basically taking up his whole season last year. Now he is VERY young, and should have been like a sophomore in high school at the time.

    Wow they had his go almost 5. Good for him. A lot of teams viewed him as a one inning reliever.

    They haven’t hit for much power, but none of the 9 guys age 20 or younger have looked overmatched here in the early going. That Houston could field an entire lineup of 19/20 year olds from full season ball is very exciting:

    C Bush
    1B Luciano
    2B Hernandez
    SS Jaworsky
    3B Nunez
    RF Baez
    CF Gomez
    LF Ochoa
    DH Encarnacion

    Eduardo Perez. He’s only 17 and still in the DSL complex.
