I started following the the Astros in the McLane era, during the mid-90's. And while he was owner, the trades the Astros made generally seemed to...
Also, Rogelio Armenteros
Fewer teams are competing for free agents. 1/3 of the teams are shedding MLB talent via trade as a start of a rebuild and not interested in free...
The Astros will have a windfall available for next season only - the $50m MBAM sale money and the $60-$90m from winning the WS. The Astros...
I was really rooting for Ben Smith. He had overcome so much already and succeeding as a pro baseball player would have been so sweet.
I hear the Marlins have a couple of outfield spots opened. And Tucker is remembered as a Tiger killer (and they have had luck with released Astros...

By that measure - comparing win counts between seasons - Molitor was the worst manager in the league in 2016. The Twins went from 79 losses in...
I am interested in seeing what Joe Perez will do in 2018. The disparity in how much more the Astros valued him in last year's draft above where he...
The only reason Ohtani would come to the Astros is the potential to win a ring (which could be a compelling argument for him, but the Dodgers can...
