MLB instituted a Prospect Promotion Incentive for the 2024 draft. It rewards teams for advancing their top prospects instead of keeping them in the minors to prolong their arbitration clock. You get a pick if your prospect wins ROY or finishes in the top three for either the MVP or Cy Young before they're eligible for arbitration.

Eligibility is based on the preseason rankings. Eligible prospects have to appear on at least two of the three Top 100 Prospect rankings released by MLB Pipeline, Baseball America and ESPN. 

Cam Smith is on 2 of these lists making him eligible.

I have a feeling our lack of depth in the minors and the loss of Breggy and Tucker will be too much to overcome. 

I like some of the additions but we're going to need previously injury prone players to not get injured this year to have a chance at another playoff run.

Hope I'm wrong.  Go Stros!!!

Fair assessment IMO. On the downslope of a historic run.

But…

When’s the last time Jose Altuve played on a losing baseball team? Or Jeremy Pena, or Yordan Alvarez?

There’s some winners DNA in this team.

CJ has no clue when it comes to Stros.  Strangers need to wort about being a one hit wonder.

Only thing that puts fear in me about the Astros is Isaac Paredes and his .400 OBP getting on for Yordan to bring him home.

Yordan is too good.

What do you who are actually fans think about Altuve in LF? Honestly.

I don’t know that it will last. Evidenced by how he did in the spring, he is not comfortable out there. To say the least.
