I thought this was interesting regarding development of young hitters. He said the MiL coaches do not criticize a player for taking a called strike 3 if it was a pitch he didn't think he could handle.

Also, Ford or Sparks one pointed out that the Astros 2013-14 draft classes lead all other teams classes in BA and many other hitting categories throughout the MiLs. 

Luhnow said that the MiL playoffs will be a factor is any September call-ups. The Astros take winning seriously in the minors and believe the playoff experience is important. All four higher echelon teams are in contention for the playoffs.

As far a specific players he is very pleased with the progression of Cameron. He added "Tucker, too."
