Heard that the Stros released Qualben... can't figure this one out. He was an all star two years in a row. Bit surprised they didnt let him start the year out in A ball.

Have you guys heard anything on his performance in camp ?

I hadn't heard that Qualben was released. I haven't heard any thing about his spring. If nothing else I figured they'd keep him as a pick-off specialist. Maybe the young crop coming up is pushing him out.
