(Note from the editor: It is well known that I am a prospect junkie, and when one of the bigger named prospects gets called up to the Big Show for the first time, I like to go back and look at past interviews to see what they were like when they were younger. Fortunately, I caught up with the Houston Astros A.J. Reed, who is set to make his big league debut last July. Here’s a look back at that interview from when I was editor at Grading on the Curve. Enjoy!)
A few weeks back, I did a little write up about one of baseball’s most exciting prospects. Amid one of MiLB’s hottest seasons, A.J. Reed had just come off his fourth California League Player of the Week Award, second consecutive Player of the Month Award and his first promotion to Double-A ball. Well folks, since his promotion, he hasn’t stopped hitting.
