The Houston Astros Player Development Department has named April's Minor League Pitchers and Players of the Month at each of their four in-season minor league affiliates. These awards are chosen every month by the field staff of each team.
IF Danny Worth was named the April Player of the Month for Triple A Fresno after batting .347 (26x75) with 14 runs, four doubles, one triple, three homers, 12 RBI and a .960 OPS (.414 OBP/.547 SLG) in 20 games during the month. The infielder led the Grizzlies in hits and OPS during April, hitting safely in 17 of his 20 total games while starting the season on a league-best, 10-game hitting streak.
