The Houston Astros' disastrous start may be the most surprising storyline of the MLB season.
Top prospect Joey Loperfido will join the Houston Astros before the start of a series with the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday. The Astros made the announcement Monday with 37-year-old first baseman Jose Abreu off to a slow start at the plate.
When he has put the bat on the ball, he hasn’t been able to do damage. Most notably, he has yet to hit a home run this season. He has just 21 hits, with his five doubles being the only knocks of the extra-base variety.
The Houston Astros Top Prospect Joey Loperfido, is expected to be promoted to the majors on Tuesday to face-off against the Cleveland Guardians. Lopofido, who was drafted by the Astros in the 7th round of the 2021 MLB Draft, is a career minor league .283 batter, with 60 doubles, 52 home runs and 180 RBIs since he was drafted into the organization.
Joey Loperfido called up to the big show. And checking in on Jeremy Pena. As the Astros left Mexico and flew back to Houston, word spread that the Astros will call up 24 year old OF/1b Joey Loperfido before Tuesday’s game against the Guardians.
These three teams are not off to the starts they expected and are quickly running out of time to right the ship.
The Astros are calling up slugger Joey Loperfido, who has been doing a nice job at the Triple-A level after earlier crushing the ball in spring training.
Kyle Tucker, Jose Altuve and Jeremy Pena each hit solo home runs as the Houston Astros completed a two-game sweep of the Colorado Rockies with an 8-2 win on Sunday in the Mexico City Series.
The Colorado Rockies became the first team to play a regular-season game in three different countries within the same month. They're also the first team to lose games in three countries.
Finally, some good news for the Houston Astros pitching staff. Left-hander Framber Valdez will be activated off the injured list to start Sunday’s game against the Rockies in Mexico City.
It’s no secret that the Houston Astros have gotten off to a rough start this year. The Astros currently sit 12 games below .500 and in last place in the American League West.
The news is obviously great for Valdez personally. He and the club got a scare when he landed on the injured list earlier this month due to soreness in his throwing elbow.

The Houston Astros fell to 7-15 on the season on Saturday night, losing a close game to the Washington Nationals in D.C. Manager Joe Espada’s team fell to 7-15 on the season while the Nationals moved to 9-11 overall.
The word “surprise” has been miles away from the Houston Astros over the past several seasons. In fact, the most stunning thing about them is their ability to normalize dominance.
The Astros confirmed tragic news about one of their former prospects on Saturday.
How many of the active MLB pitchers with the most career strikeouts can you name in five minutes?
The Astros have to be questioning whether they have Josh Hader out there pitching for them right now or Bill Hader.
