Although cold temperatures and a lackluster free agency currently reign supreme, Spring Training is only a few weeks away. Don’t forget that Astros’ pitchers and catchers report on February 14th, otherwise known as Valentine’s Day.
As expected, the Astros recently announced their non-roster invitees to this year’s Spring Training. While most, if not all, of the invites are likely not earn a spot on the major league roster, one can never know for sure until the time for cuts actually happens.
Here is the list of non-roster invites for the Astros, which currently stands at 22 (11 pitchers, 11 position players):
- RHP Forrest Whitley
- RHP J.
