Astros prospect J.B. Bukauskas ushered into farm system

Posted Jul 8, 2017
Walking into a loaded Astros farm system, J.B. Bukauskas knows he doesn't have to be on a fast track to the majors. It doesn't mean the former UNC righthander and 15th overall pick can't start on the path immediately. He'll be on a plane to West Palm Beach, Fla. on Saturday to join the rookie affiliate Gulf Coast League Astros after his signing was made official Friday. (Houston Chronicle)
