The Astros first round pick from 2006 is fighting meningitis.

Max Sapp, the Astros' first-round draft pick in 2006, has been hospitalized for more than two weeks in Orlando, Fla., with a case of meningitis, assistant general manager Ricky Bennett said Tuesday.

Bennett said Sapp, 20, has been breathing with the help of a respirator after undergoing surgery to repair a severe sinus infection and contracting meningitis.

Let's hope he makes a speedy recovering. It appears his athletic conditioning helped him through the illness.

Hat tip, BBTF.
