This is true. But I feel like baseball is more division specific than most. You can get away with being mediocre more in basketball (though your...
If mediocre is average, I still think it pays off to be average in basketball. You have the hope of going to the championship, but there is more...
Understand that I agree with you. If I were to pick how we handled the past few years, it has all gone to plan with how I would want it (minus a...
I think it would be better to say that the Astros are playing the system how it is best set up to be played which cheats the fans in the short...
Just finished David and Goliath by Malcolm Gladwell. Typicall Gladwell awesomeness.
Travis Ballew is really interesting to me. If he can keep the ball in the park, he has some late innings bullpen time possibly ahead of him. His K...
Kvasnicka did decently, but being 24 in A+ makes it a little easier to swallow. But Sanudo could be a great arm for this system! And man... if it...

I didn't really know if this had been touched on that much, but is Guzman someone that we should be taking more seriously? I mean we just signed...
I'd be willing to bet almost anything he has at least a .700+ OPS at home next year. I don't think he could replicate that .605 OPS again at home...
Totally agree on the PB situation. I have never really thought that it was a detriment to have the guy behind the plate (especially on this team...
I'll take the pass balls, but not this. If the injuries continue, I don't like the prospect of moving him to DH or 1B. It seems like he would lose...
