The Miley Signing Opens the 2020 Rotation to the Astros Pitching Prospects

After a long, dark winter of little player movement, the Astros finally struck on Thursday afternoon, signing Wade Miley to a 1 year, $4.5 million contract. Astros Twitter will now have to decide between Hannah Montana, Party in the USA, and Wrecking Ball gifs to highlight Miley's accomplishments in 2019.

Miley enters a starting rotation that is revamped from last season. Miley should slot behind Collin McHugh as the #4 starter to open the season. Justin Verlander and Gerrit Cole will anchor the rotation, while Josh James, Framber Valdez, and Brad Peacock will fight for the 5th starter's job in Spring Training.
