Catcher Max Stassi could have a breakout spring. After the Houston Astros had let Jason Castro go, and acquired Brian McCann, it seemed that Stassi would be the unlucky backstop out. After Stassi endured an injury that forced him from play last spring, it seems he has plenty to prove. Stassi hit a two-run homer against Atlanta and owns the only long ball for the Astros this spring.
While Stassi remains an extreme long shot to make the opening day roster, a good spring could make him more valuable on the trading block.
