Here he stands, perched on the ledge of his first full season, ready to take flight and lead the Houston Astros skyward once again. Take a good look; there is an excellent chance that these are the last few moments in the baseball world before he becomes a household name.

He is a young man, 21, with the wisdom of an old man.
