Happy Birthday - 12/7

Drafted as a supplemental pick in the first round in 2010 out of the University of Minnesota, Mike spent  2011 at Lexington after getting his feet wet at Tri-City in 2010.  His batting line in the first half was .286/.346/.419/.765, but that tapered off to .260/.328/.368/.696 for the full season.  He led all Astros minor-leaguers in doubles for the season with 32.
