Originally Appeared on Vype
Another year in the books and another bumper crop of national prospects coming out of Houston.
The Texas A&M Aggies signed five of VYPE's Top 10 prospects of 2019, while Oklahoma welcomes two. This Top 10 is tremendously decorated. Kenyon Green could be considered the state's No. 1 recruit, Grant Gunnell is the all-time leading passer in Texas High School football history and one of Katy's most dominant running backs all complete their high school careers.
It will be interesting to see how these 10 translate to the college game and how quickly. They have left their legacy in Houston, so let's see where their paths take them from here.
Here is the Complete Hot 100 for 2019.

VYPE Hot 100
No. 1-10
No. 1 Kenyon Green, Atascocita, OL, Texas A&M
Huge, physical and has played against some of the best talent in the state. Could be an immediate impact player at Texas A&M as Jimbo got his man. Good strength and flexibility.
Matt's list continues here
Oswald Peraza hit a two-run single in the ninth inning to help the Los Angeles Angels snap a three-game losing skid by beating the Houston Astros 4-1 on Saturday night.
Peraza entered the game as a defensive replacement in the seventh inning and hit a bases-loaded fly ball to deep right field that eluded the outstretched glove of Cam Smith. It was the fourth straight hit off Astros closer Bryan Abreu (3-4), who had not allowed a run in his previous 12 appearances.
The Angels third run of the ninth inning scored when Mike Trout walked with the bases loaded.
Kyle Hendricks allowed one run while scattering seven hits over six innings. He held the Astros to 1 for 8 with runners in scoring position, the one hit coming on Jesús Sánchez’s third-inning infield single that scored Jeremy Peña.
Reid Detmers worked around a leadoff walk to keep the Astros scoreless in the seventh, and José Fermin (3-2) retired the side in order in the eighth before Kenley Jansen worked a scoreless ninth to earn his 24th save.
Houston’s Spencer Arrighetti struck out a season-high eight batters over 6 1/3 innings. The only hit he allowed was Zach Neto’s third-inning solo home run.
Yordan Alvarez had two hits for the Astros, who remained three games ahead of Seattle for first place in the AL West.
Peraza’s two-run single to deep right field that broke a 1-1 tie in the ninth.
Opponents were 5 for 44 against Abreu in August before he allowed four straight hits in the ninth.
Astros RHP Hunter Brown (10-6, 2.37 ERA) faces RHP José Soriano (9-9, 3.85) when the series continues Sunday.
