Astros To Select Jon Singleto Astros To Select Jon Singleto
The Astros are set to select the contract of first baseman from Triple-A Sugar Land, Singleton himself tells Kristie Rieken of the A sociated Pre s ( ). Hes on his way to join the team in Baltimore. A corresponding 40-man roster move will need to be announced, though Houston already opened a spot on the 26-man roster by to Triple-A earlier today. The 31-year-old Singleton reached the Majors earlier this season with the Brewers his first MLB stint since his original run with the Astros in 2014-15. Prior to making his MLB debut, Singleton inked a five-year, $10MM extension with the Astros that included a trio of club options. Both parties took some criticism from detractors, with Singleton in particular drawing flak for potentially selling himself short. In hindsight, taking the deal looks to have paid off; Singleton batted just .171/.290/.333 with the Stros in multiple stints before being released in 2018. That was the first of three full Gavin Stone Jersey seasons in which Singleton was out of baseball entirely. He turned up in the Mexican League during the 2021 season and hit well enough to draw looks with the Brewers on minor league contracts in both 2022 and 2023. Though he went just 3-for-29 with the Brewers in his return to MLB action earlier this year (to say nothing of a 34% strikeout rate), Singleton has turned in a combined .289/.409/.567 slash between the Triple-A affiliates for Milwaukee and Houston this season. Hes walked at an exceptional 17.3% clip against just a 20.6% strikeout rate between those two stops. Houston has been on the lookout for extra left-handed bats for much of the season. has yet to return to the lineup after signing a one-year, $15MM deal over the winter, as multiple setbacks have popped up in his rehab from shoulder surgery. mi sed more than a month of the summer with an oblique strain, though hes back in the lineup and again serving as a middle-of-the-order masher. GM Dana Brown said in the weeks leading up to the trade deadline that hed love to add a left-handed bat, but no deal ever materialized, so the organization will turn to an old friend and look for a late-blooming breakthrough to help balance out an extremely righty-heavy roster.
