Astros top prospect Abraham Toro was named the Canadian Offensive Minor League Player of the Year on Tuesday by the Canadian Baseball Network. The award, named the Randall Echlin Award, honored Toro (who hails from Quebec) for his outstanding 2019 season.
Toro earned the honor by virtue of his excellent numbers in his rise from Double-A to the major leagues this year. He hit .306/.393/.513 with 16 homers and 22 doubles in 98 games for Corpus Christi before mashing in a 16-game stint at Triple-A Round Rock to the tune of a .424/.506/.606 line.
