LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- The Astros hope Anthony Gose's second tenure with the club is a little more memorable than his first.
Gose, who spent less than a day with the Astros in between a pair of trades in 2010, was selected by the club from the Rangers in Thursday's Rule 5 Draft, which capped the Winter Meetings. Gose, a former Major League outfielder, was selected as a left-handed pitcher and will come to camp competing for a roster spot on the big league club.
"We thought he had the best stuff in the Draft," Astros special assistant to the general manager Kevin Goldstein said.
