Prospect Q&A with Astros' J.B. Bukauskas

Posted Mar 21, 2018
Houston Astros No. 3 prospect, J.B. Bukauskas: "(Spring Training has) been going good. Being at UNC, we had a lot of guys come back and give you an idea of what it'll be like. We have some Carolina guys here within the organization, which makes the transition easier. The days are longer than in college, but I guess that's what you should expect, it's your job now."
