9/12/24 Late hits help Astros get past pesky Athletics. Jon Singleton ripped a go-ahead RBI single in the bottom of the eighth inning to lift the host Houston Astros to a 6-3 win over the Oakland Athletics on Thursday afternoon. Singleton plated Yainer Diaz, who had smacked a one-out single, advanced to second on Kyle Tucker's base hit and moved to third on Jeremy Pena's flyout to right. After Singleton came through in the clutch, Jake Meyers helped Houston (78-68) salvage the finale of a three-game series with an RBI double.

7/22/24 Houston Astros Promote Past World Series Champion in Latest Roster Shakeup. After the Houston Astros worked their way back into contention before the All-Star break, they looked like prime buying candidates to bolster their roster. When they took over first place in the AL West, that pretty much cemented their plans ahead of the July 30 trade deadline. Starting pitching seems to be the area that is going to garner the front office's attention the most, but they could use another consistent bat at first base to supplement Jon Singleton. As the Astros search the market for some options, they have decided to give one of their past World Series champions another shot with the franchise after they signed him to a minor league deal in mid-July.

5/26/24 Potential Houston Astros Trade Adds Former All-Star First Baseman. The Houston Astros have fought back from a terrible start to the season and are squarely in contention for the playoffs. With a new outlook on the season, comes a new approach to the MLB trade deadline. Jon Singleton has had his best season and Jose Abreu looks close to returning to the majors, but that group doesn't inspire much confidence for the post-season. One of the top players at the position that will become available for trade is Miami Marlins slugger Josh Bell.

5/25/24 Who Will Be Odd Man Out for Houston Astros When Jose Abreu Returns?. The Houston Astros have had their difficulties this season, in large part due to injuries and underperforming veterans. This has caused a roster, and subsequently, a lineup headache for rookie manager Joe Espada. Jon Singleton seems to have the favor of Espada, but his 108 OPS+ doesn't exactly inspire confidence at an offense-first position like first base.

3/07/24 Astros' Former Prospect Seems To Have Role. Astros' Former Superstar Prospect Seems To Have Edge For Bench Role After getting a second chance with the Houston Astros, one of their former top prospects could have a major role on the bench this season. Author: Brad Wakai Publish date: Mar 7, 2024 1:31 PM EST In this story: Houston Astros The Houston Astros thought they were getting a potential superstar when they acquired Jon Singleton in a trade with the Philadelphia Phillies .

8/16/23 Failed marijuana tests nearly ended Jon Singleton's career. Now the Astros slugger is asking what if. In 2018, Jon Singleton requested his release from the Houston Astros after being suspended 100 games following a third failed marijuana test while in the minors, choosing to walk away from baseball rather than face the suspension and everything that came with it. A year later, marijuana was removed from MLB's banned substances list. It would be a couple more years before the left-handed slugger returned to organized baseball in the Mexican League. The former top prospect, now 31, wonders what his career could have been if marijuana — currently legal in 23 states — was taken off the banned substances list sooner.

8/15/23 Failed marijuana tests nearly ended Jon Singleton's career. Now the Astros slugger is asking what if. Slugger Jon Singleton is back in the majors for the first time since 2015 after his career was derailed by several failed tests for marijuana. His final failed test was in 2018, one year before Major League Baseball removed marijuana from its banned substances list. He wonders what could have been if marijuana was taken off the list sooner. He started this season with Milwaukee and is now back with the Houston Astros. The 31-year-old was once a top prospect. He starred for the Astros in his first home game Friday night with two homers and a career-high five RBIs.

8/13/23 The Bats Go Quiet, Astros Drop Series Finale to Angels 2-1. Well, the good times for the Astros' lineup against the Angels' pitching staff came to a screeching halt Sunday. Following a 22-run outburst in the previous two games combined, Houston's bats fell silent when it mattered most, hitting 0-for-8 in team RISP. The lone run occurred when Jon Singleton scored from third on a wild pitch to Mauricio Dubón in the bottom half of the sixth inning. Houston had a .133 batting average on the day compared to a .271 xBA.
