Recapping the Minors: May 1st

It was a busy time for the Astros organization the last few days, with several players switching teams. Here is an update of all the player movement as of this post, plus all the important stats from last night!

From OKC to Houston – Jordan Lyles (expected to start for Astros today) and Dallas Keuchel called up. No word on corresponding moves.

From CC to OKC – Asher Wojciechowski, Carlos Perez, Jason Stoffel

From LC to CC – Zach Johnson

Other Astros News – The Colorado Rockies announced that they acquired Jose Monzon as the PTBNL in the Wilton Lopez trade. Monzon is a 21-yr OF, and has been in Greenville the last 2 years. He is a career .213 hitter with a .610 OPS.

Other OKC News – The Astros have decided to abandon the tandem-pitching at OKC, which makes a lot of sense considering the many injuries and call-ups.
