 Ed Wade Boggles My Mind
Ed Wade Boggles My Mind
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.

Justice: Wolf trade shows Astros need reality check | Chron.com - Houston Chronicle
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, ...

Not Hungry For The Wolf
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.

John Kerry Ain't Got Nothin' on Richard Justice - Why Sports Writers Matter
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.

 DIPS > ERA
DIPS > ERA
The Astros are awful, irrelevant, and just easy to make fun of heading into the trade deadline.

Today we're focusing on why DIPS does a better job at evaluting true pitching performance -- which ERA woefully fails to do.

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 ...

More harsh words for Ed Wade. How does this guy have a job. Plus a bad grade for a Cashman move.
