Protected from Rule 5 draft Nova was added to the Astros' 40-man roster Friday, Jake Kaplan of The Athletic reports.
Impact Nova isn't particularly close to being big-league ready, but the team invested seven figures in signing him back in 2016, and didn't want another team to scoop him up in the Rule 5 draft. Improving his approach and getting to his power and speed more in games will be a priority when he heads to High-A this season.

Shielded from Rule 5 draft Ivey was added to the Astros' 40-man roster Friday, Jake Kaplan of The Athletic reports.
Impact Ivey has been unable to build up his workload much over the past two seasons, so that will be a priority in 2021 as he looks to prove that he can be a starter long term. He has a mid-90s fastball and two breaking balls with plus potential, so he could be a quality reliever if things don't work out in the rotation.

Protected from Rule 5 draft Solomon was added to the Astros' 40-man roster Friday, Jake Kaplan of The Athletic reports.
Impact He underwent Tommy John surgery in the summer of 2019, and should be fully recovered at this point. Solomon had a promising 2018 season at Low-A and High-A, and could open the upcoming season at Double-A. He has a fairly high ceiling and is a nice sleeper in deep dynasty leagues.

Added to 40-man roster Solis was added to the Astros' 40-man roster Friday, Jake Kaplan of The Athletic reports.
Impact One of Houston's most talented prospects, Solis missed the 2019 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery but he shouldn't be overlooked in dynasty leagues. Prior to the injury, Solis' fastball projected as a 70-grade pitch and he also has a plus curveball. He could shoot up rankings if he impresses early in 2021, likely at High-A or Double-A.

Added to 40-man roster Whitley (arm) was added to the Astros' 40-man roster Friday, Jake Kaplan of The Athletic reports.
Impact General manager James Click told Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle that Whitley has been working out and the team expects him to be healthy for the start of spring training, but as with any pitcher who ended the season with an arm injury, we should wait until he is throwing in spring games before taking that as gospel. Whitley was an obvious player to protect from the Rule 5 draft, but he is coming off a pretty disappointing season, as he was looking as good as he has in years before coming down with an arm injury early at the alternate training site. Health permitting, this could be the year that he finally makes his big-league debut.
