Well, looks like we are going to finish last this season, and WELL DESERVED.
Wrong moves. Sign Feliz, why? We have Johnson ready to play.
I like the Lindstrom trade, but what about using him in the 7th with Hawkins (who wanted to pitch for the astros) and Valverde, a really good closer. So, instead of spending the money on Feliz, what about having a bullpen of Linstrom, Hawkins and Valverde?
I like the Myers move.
You don't want to spend money? Well, you are not going to win many games, especially if money is not spend the right way.
How many wins for the ASStros in 2010? Well, so far, 0.

I don't think money is the main issue with this team. The Astros have a mish-mash of players that don't seem to add up to a TEAM! There's no chemistry with these guys. Perhaps that will work it's way out over the course of the season, but the fact that they cannot hit or pitch might have something to do with it too.

We just finished our second home sweep. I thought today would be difficult to win but Roy Oswalt pitched better than I expected him to. He pitched good enough to win, even with the lousy hitting Astros. Today was evidently lots of bad luck. That is an improvement over the last 5 games that were just plain bad.

It looks like Draytie went shooping for players at a Flea Market....

Would he put sh*t in his grocery store? Someone should put that question to him.

If he thought someone would buy it, of course he would 'cause that's how he rolls!  |

Astro fans ought to quit buying the sh*t he puts in his grocery store if he is going to make us watch this baseball team.

As long as the fans pay good money for tickets, merchandise, and concessions, we will get more of the same.......a bunch of no-talent clowns who can't play. Get rid of Carlos Lee and spend that money on some good, young players who at least care. Same goes for fat ass Berkman.

That is why this is almost good. I can't see fans putting up with this for very long. Hopefully we are not in Chicago. Of course I am in South Dakota, but Houston can't put up with this for long. Been to any games lately, JB?

I haven't been to a game since Bagwell quit playing. In fact, the last time I was there, Roger Clemens beat the Reds. I don't plan to go back until Drayton either sells the team or tries to build a winner. If he wants a winner, he will have to upgrade the farm system and make Wade stop bringing in Phillie retreads.

Not gonna happen, JB. Draytie just cares about money. You look up greedy fool in Webster's and Drayties picture is there. This team has no pitching, no offense and no pride what so ever! At least the Rangers act like they actually WANT to win!

The Rangers, there you spoke a dirty word. They smoke us every time they play us. The Astros is the bottom of the garbage heap they currently call the National league. I stick with them because I always have, but they suck and we are the worst of the worst. Sorry if I am laying it on heavy, but that is what I feel about Drayton and his little league ball club.

0-8! Way to show your pride guys! Let's see if we can set a MLB record for MOST LOSSES in a season! The way these guys look in the field I think they have a shot at it!

The big bopper went hitless and dropped a fly ball. Norris looked pretty angry at about that flyball. Bopper, you are supposed to hit with your bat, not boot with your foot!
