With most of these relievers, it all depends on price and length of contract. I'm of the belief that the Balfour's/Hanrahan's of the league the Astros should sign and then trade at the deadline. You could find relievers pretty easily and it's not a huge need for the Astros yet. Hanrahan can rebuild his value in Houston and trade him for a top 100/150 close to the MLB prospect in baseball is plenty worth it.
Would be even easier if we could just read it here in the forum and you copied and pasted the content instead of just giving us a link. Wonder why you wouldn't just do that??
I'm not going to deny trying to get page views. We are a new Houston blog just started two months ago starting to spread the word and I thought Clutchfans would be a great place to start. I could post original content straight up on here but I don't want to clog the forums with 4 or more paragraphs if people are just looking for small tidbits of information, hence why I just go with the links.
You're trying to lure people to your site by billing it as a place to get the exact same information that we come to Clutchfans for, but in, as you put it, "an easier way to view it". But you already know that.
I don't see a problem with what he did, cardpile...but it's also not my site. If Castor27 or Clutch have an issue with it, they will deal with it. Or, hit the "report" button. Right now, you're just derailing the thread.
If the prefer I not do it, I don't mind not doing it. Didn't know it'd be a problem. Plus not trying to steal anything from Clutchfans. They are specific to Rockets, the blog does all Houston. Trust me, I love clutch fans, been visiting this site for over 10 years. Anyway...Nothing new on the Astros in the last 6 or so hours. Expect to see few articles later on in the night and maybe some word on another player or two.

And a small CSN "update" http://www.houstonchronicle.com/spo...arger-Astros-4984291.php?t=c680d956cd66506723
Oh damn. I know he'd cost a fortune, but he sure would make a lot of sense. Sickest young pitching staff ever.
^^ Would be cool. Don't quite understand the Sugar Land being "too close" though. What does that really matter? 15 miles vs. 40 miles...in what aspects does that make any sort of difference?
