If we don't win the WS in the next two years, Dallas and George will leave in FA. Crane doesn't seem to plan on paying them big bucks. Maybe...
Except the joke's on us fans :confused:
We're not sure he won't get lit up also.
At this rate, gotta score 10 more runs. So Luhnow blundered at the trade deadline.
Great. CLE will be extra motivated to get back to the WS and we have to get by them.
Damage control, because they're hearing it from the media and the fans
Crossing my fingers when bullpen time comes
If we win it all this year, then Crane could execute his plan for years and the fans would be happy. But now the natives are restless. So if we...
At least football season is approaching. Expectations about the Texans are more tempered.

Getting into the AL championship series would be a reasonable goal now. No chance of getting into the WS, I think. Team morale is big factor...
