The Astros already added an uber-prospect this month with Alex Bregman's callup. Houston may add another out of necessity. MLB.com's Brian McTaggart is reporting that prospect Joe Musgrove has flown to Houston on Sunday with the possibility that the may start on Monday against the Blue Jays.

No announcement yet on Monday starter. We do know Musgrove is on his way to Houston.
