The Houston Astros have added players like J.D. Davis, Tony Kemp, Reymin Guduan and Tyler White to the active roster, with the chance to add more players who they think can help them maintain the best record in the American League down the stretch. Perhaps A.J. Reed or Preston Tucker could see some time up this month.
The expansion to the 40 man roster affords these players the chance to make their case as major league players. Tony Kemp especially is a prospect that deserves a shot to make a major league roster.
