Slew of Astros demoted to minors: The Astros optioned RHP Paul Estrada, RHP Fernando Nieve and RHP Chad Reineke and OF Yordany Ramirez to Triple-A Round Rock; and RHP Sammy Gervacio and RHP Brad James to Double-A Corpus Christi. Also, they reassigned INF Tommy Manzella, 1B Lance Niekro and LHP Josh Muecke to minor league camp.
(Updated 03/10/2008).
Injury Report
No information available at this time (Updated 10/6/08).
Fantasy Analysis
Nieve, Estrada and Reineke could help the team before the end of the season, but all of these guys are nothing more than organizational depth and can be ignored on Draft Day at this point.
