ESPN INSIDER: Ensberg non moving and Astros no longer into Tejada

Huff is hitting .154 with runners in scoring position this year. Yeah, he doesn't strike out, but he's also not clutch. I think alot of people want to say Huff is better by default because of what they have seen of Ensberg this year.

 

2003-2005

RISP: .284 / .384 / .530
Close & Late: .295 / .366 / .485

BTW, here's Derek Captain Clutch Jeter's numbers:

RISP: .288 / .380 / .405
C&L: .249 / .352 / .392

 

The Astros are gonna have to either pick up the option on Preston Wilson or sign Huff in the offseason...they don't need to keep both, but they should keep one.

 

I'll just throw this in here from the LA Times:

Among the third basemen the Angels have inquired about are the Chicago Cubs' Aramis Ramirez (.266, 22 homers, 63 runs batted in), Arizona's Chad Tracy (.278, 14 homers, 56 RBIs) and Houston's Morgan Ensberg (.236, 19 homers, 44 RBIs).

At this point, there's a better chance of hell freezing over than the Astros picking up Wilson's option. Unless, of course, Purpura somehow thinks Wilson is worthy of $24 million over 3 years, in which case Astros fans will surely burn down MMP.

(I vote for Huff.)

 

I'm so sick of all this I can't wait until Monday comes and the deadline has passed. I just don't understand the Astros and why they haven't made any moves other than acquiring Huff to better this team. Not signing Huff would be a big blow that would just tell us that they could care less about this team. As for the Astros signing Wilson in the offseason I could see that because that would be a bad move and they obviously want a losing team

 

Huff hits a HR in his first game as an Astro. Since then he's done absolutely nothing. Maybe he's hanging around Preston the Big K Wilson too much.

 

you might be the most unreadable poster in this forum. seriously, can you whine any more? I bet that if you took a road trip with some friends, and the car ran out of gas, you would probably squeal "the car is out of gas, the car is out of gas!"
