Houston is currently 11-15 and in last place in the N.L. Central division. Their losses have resulted from two primary causes: great pitching, but terrible hitting and terrible pitching.Its the painful truth, but on the bright side it's only May and tonight we get another chance to improve our at home record...against the Cubs.
On a different topic Astros owner Drayton McLane has gone off the deep end.
McLane thinks the solution to the team's finances is to get rid of expensive talent and bring in cheaper players. Wrong. That will only result in a lousier team and, in turn, smaller revenues since nobody's going to the games. Let's face it: McLane is no Billy Bean, a man whose acute ability to assess baseball talent allows him to sign players at cheap prices. "Drayton McMullen", please sell the team if you're not going to invest in it.(To those who don't know Billy Bean was a homosexual outfielder for the San Diego Padres from 93-95.)
When Roy Oswalt left the game yesterday with a bruised finger, Houston's pitching went haywire leaving the game at a nail-biting 11 innings, until mother nature had other plans delaying the game at first then suspending the game untill July 9th. Basiclly the game was the battle of last placers. Two last-place teams with struggling bullpens and many other problems played till they were blue in the face, giving away leads as though neither wanted to win.
Im frusterated with the Astros, but by no means am I giving up! Just read the words of Yogi Berra "Slump? I ain’t in no slump… I just ain’t hitting."
