Will Tony Kemp join the Houston Astros soon?

Tony Kemp and Mark Appel represented the Houston Astros at the 2015 All-Star Futures Game while Appel showed dominance in his inning pitched touching 97-98 mph, but Kemp stole the show with his personality and play. Kemp’s natural position was the outfield, but then he was moved to second base when he was drafted but has recently tried to work his way back into outfield playing time. Kemp has to do this because of a fellow blocking him by the name of Jose Altuve. You might have heard of Altuve, he’s starting for the American League in the 2015 All-Star Game.
