Great article on the incompetent Astros, comparing them
to the Enron fiasco.
] When the Houston Astros decided to be
buyers at the trade deadline, it was somewhat confusing.
The Astros were 50-57 on July 31, in fifth place in the NL Central, and trailing the Cubs by 14 games. In the wild card race, they trailed Milwaukee by ...
The agent for Freddy Garcia recently made calls
to several teams that watched the rehabbing right-hander work
out earlier this week, including the Astros. General manager Ed Wade spoke Garcia's agent on Thursday but is not at the point where he's ...
There are good trades, there are bad trades,
there are in-between trades, and then there are trades
that just don't make a lick of sense. The Astros traded for Randy Wolf today to strengthen their rotation for their intense battle for last place in ...
The Houston Astros have some sort of plan
they are about to set into action. I'm not
sure exactly what it is, but it somehow involves Randy Wolf. Maybe they're planning a hostile takeover of the NL Central.
If Drayton McLane keeps watching his Astros, he
may finally see them for what they actually are
instead of what he'd like them to be. He's stubborn, not stupid. He'll eventually understand that his franchise is broken. It didn't get broken overnight, ...
Wade insisted to the media that the Astros
are a MUCH better team than our record shows
and we fully expect to win and we are NOT sellers. I am not making this up.
HOUSTON -- The Astros acquired left-handed pitcher Randy
Wolf from the Padres in exchange for Minor League
right-hander Chad Reineke, the organization announced Tuesday. Houston gets Wolf, who went 6-10 with a 4.74 ERA in 21 starts for San Diego, for ...
The Astros are in the basement of the
NL Central with little of no hope for the
next few years of being anywhere else. While we can certainly ridicule Ed Wade and Drayton McLane, perhaps we should point the finger at the beat writers who have defended them and sold their lies.
When Roy Oswalt went on the disabled list
earlier this month, everyone assumed that his season was
over. He's got a back problem that lead to a hip problem and the Astros season has been in the toilet since late May, so there's no use in hurrying him ...
Amid rumors that Boston was contacting the Astros
regarding its interest in Miguel Tejada, Houston general manager
Ed Wade assured Tejada on Monday that his spot was safe.
Harsh words for GM Ed Wade. Can't say
I disagree. I think time has passed the Astros
leader by. Why the hell did the Astros acquire Randy Wolf?
The Astros are awful, irrelevant, and just easy
to make fun of heading into the trade deadline.
Instead, we're focusing on objective baseball knowledge -- which just makes the Astros look even worse/inept. Today we're focusing on why DIPS does a better job at evaluting true pitching performance -- which ERA woefully fails to do.
Ed Wade for Ned Colletti? I love it.
All the national baseball writers are laughing their
heads off in print about the Astros insistence that
they will not be sellers, but are going to busy acquiring players for our push to the playoffs. I just love it when my baseball team is one of ...
It's been a relatively quiet afternoon — Arthur
Rhodes to Florida, yawn — but we still have
about 45 minutes left on the non-waiver trading period. The Manny three-way deal is said to be dead ( though maybe not ), so there stands a good ...
Despite numerous deals being rumored and many others
going through , Jays GM JP Riccardi was unable
to find a buyer for the Jays 2008 season. The Jays are on pace to be a .500 ball club, but JP was still unable to find a team that would trade seasons, even among teams with much worse records. Pirates GM Neal Huntington said he while would appreciate the increase in wins, falling short of the ...
Astros GM Ed Wade is either incredibly stupid
or incredibly genius. In the interest of playing devil's
advocate, we'll trying to find evidence of the latter...
More harsh words for Ed Wade. How does
this guy have a job. Plus a bad grade
for a Cashman move.














Astros Have Followed the Enron Model
