Jon Singleton to Join Astros
The Astros are set to recall first baseman Jon Singleton from Triple-A Sugar Land, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports. He'll come up with the Astros facing a rash of injuries in their infield. Now 33 years old, Singleton debuted with the Astros as a highly touted prospect in 2014, but his career hasn't gone according to plan. Singleton has received sporadic playing time in the majors in four different seasons with the Astros and Brewers. Over 930 plate appearances, Singleton has hit .198/.301/.347 with 29 home runs. While with the Astros last year, Singleton established career-high totals in games played (119) and plate appearances (405), and he batted a personal-best .234/.321/.386 with 13 homers and 42 RBI. The Astros released Singleton in March, but they re-signed him to a minor-league contract in June after he spent a brief period in the minors with the Mets.
