The top prospect in the Houston Astros farm system hit his first career spring training home run and first in an Astros uniform.

Training began in earnest last week and the Astros have already played a few spring games in Florida. It's still incredibly early, but it's never to early to look at some of the big storylines for the ballclub this spring.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla — Nothing signals the start of a spring training schedule like split-squad games. The Houston Astros will open Grapefruit League play on Saturday morning, with one team hosting the Washington Nationals at CACTI Park of the Palm Beaches and another traveling to Port St. Lucie to face the New York Mets.
