Talk about a perfect script for a made for tv movie

hope he works out as an astro. would be nice to have another good bat etc. but that said Houses story on his journey to spring training reads like a slightly unbelivable made for tv movie.

The Link's not working for me.  Would you kindly explain the gist of the story?

Baseball Toaster, Erik Siegrist provides this insightful commentary on the Astros,

J.R. House, Hou -- Whaaaa... ? Yes, House is back after his one-season stint as West Virginia's backup QB, and after Fox stole his name for a hit show. He's surrounded by a blizzard of question marks (can he throw a baseball well enough to stick behind the plate? How rusty is his swing? Etc.) but if he answers most or all of them, the Astros might be the perfect organization for him. Brad Ausmus turns 73 this year and can't hold together much longer, and there isn't an obvious heir apparent in the system behind the plate. If House can't hack it anymore as a catcher, though, first base is equally devoid of upper-minor prospects to replace Jeff Bagwell.

Good to see Siegrist saves everyone time by prefacing his article with the reaction that the reader has at the end... "Whaaaaaaa?"

Seriously.  This could be a great deal for the Astros.
