Fan Graphs breaks down the Astros Farm System
A good read from an outsider with statistical objectivity (i.e. no rose colored glasses). Here's a few juicy tidbits to entice you to click the link:
On JR Towles: "Towles is definitely a better hitter than he showed in 2008."
On Drew Sutton: "fast-forward a year and you have a potential long-term replacement for Craig Biggio."

Good to know that not everyone has given up on JR.
“Replacement for Craig Biggio” seems so wildly optimistic that it has to be hyperbole. Unless they mean post-knee-injury Bidge, in which case they might have a case. But unless Sutton exceeds everything anyone has said about him, I seriously doubt that he can “replace” Biggio.
