    Should be the best defensive team we have put out there this season.

    Look how long it took for J.D. Martinez. Hinze will be a top 10 organizational prospect if he is still playing great by mid-season next year. Of course if he is still playing great, I'll be wondering why he isn't in Houston.

    Looking forward to the next group of Astros....been a while that we had a band aid team put together. Be nice to finally start up and have something to look forward to.

    Poor Wallace, guy was top 5 in batting the first 4 or 5 weeks of the season, and completely fell off a cliff. Guy couldn't hit for power to save his life.

    I wonder how much of it is Wallace changing anything, instead, opposing pitchers adjusting to his weaknesses.

    Agree 100%. As much as I was a fan of Berkman and Oswalt and what not, it was much more painful to watch a team that was delaying an inevitable rebuild.

    We're headed in the right direction at full steam finally. It may take a while but at least we're doing it.

    Hah!

    Dee Gordon is a freakin' pencil. I was a bit shocked the first time I saw him.

    Not to mention the Kid 'n Play hairdo. He looked kinda like Chris Rock in one of his older movies.
