Coe Released

A transaction post on Baseball America on October 29 indicated that the Astros activated from the inactive list consequently released a first baseman name Ryan Coe. Being unfamiliar with this name, I did a little research on Coe. As best I can determine, Coe was drafted in 1995 by Houston. He played in the system through 1999, reaching the High A Level. I am assuming this move was mostly just a paperwork move.

I also discovered yesterday that Jacob Priday, IF, who the Astros drafted out of Missouri in 2008, retired after the 2008 season. Priday was listed as inactive throughout the 2009 season.
