Happy Birthday - 8/27

Nick Tropeano (21)
Drafted in the 5th Round in 2011 out of Stony Brook (NY), this right-hander has come out of the gate strong for Tri-City this season. In 11 starts, he is 2-2 with a 2.61 ERA, a 1.20 WHIP, 1HR, 19BB, 56SO and a .217 BA against. I look forward to seeing how quickly he progresses through the Astros system.
