Astros Prospect Rewind: George Springer

Before Carlos Correa, before Alex Bregman, before Lance McCullers, the Astros had an uber prospect coming through the minor league system and his name was George Springer. Last year I wrote a similar article to this one, but with Springer's hot start, I think it would be cool to look back at his "prospect" days.

George Springer, born in New Britain, Connecticut, also played his high school baseball in Connecticut. He was a solid prospect coming out of high which actually got him drafted by the Twins but did not sign and decided to attend college.
