| 9/01/24 | Houston Astros Give Long-Time Prospect Another Shot As September Call-Up. With the final month of the regular season now here, the Houston Astros sit five games up on the Seattle Mariners and look to be well on their way to taking home another AL West division crown. Because the Astros are in contention for the playoffs and have a roster poised to make another deep run, their September call-ups don't mean as much for the long-term viability of the franchise as others around the league who are wanting to see what their young players can do. Instead, Houston will be looking to fortify this group by taking advantage of the expanded rosters. As can be gatherer from their social media post, they are giving long-time prospect Forrest Whitley another opportunity in the Majors after he was called up to throw in one game back on April 16.

| 6/20/24 | Former Houston Astros Top Prospect Beginning Journey Back to Majors Again. It's hard to reach Major League Baseball no matter how highly touted a player might be, something one of the Houston Astros former top prospect knows all about. After being selected 17th overall in the 2016 draft, Forrest Whitley was ranked No. 1 in the Astros' pipeline for four straight years from 2018-21. Considered the starter of their future, things kept popping up at every turn that prevented him from rapidly ascending within their farm system as he was suspended 50 games for violating MLB's drug prevention and treatment program in 2018, and underwent Tommy John surgery in 2021. Whitley looked like he was living up to the hype early on in his career, but after the season-ending surgery he struggled with a 6.53 and 5.70 ERA following his return.
