    Just wondering who sees the Astros making it to the playoffs. Will they be out by 1 game? Many? Just get in?

    Thoughts...

    If you mods can fix the title to **Who** instead of **How** that'd be great. Thanks. :D

    i voted yes...i think they have as good a chance as anyone else in that division. and frankly, they're creeped up enough in the wild card race to maybe sneak in that way, too.

    Wildcard's coming out of the West and the Central just has too many teams to leapfrog.

    i think the Giants and/or Rockies will pull away in the wildcard and we'll lose that by at least 6 games.

    and i think we'll lose the division race by 2-3 games, and it will suck..

    prove me wrong, guys!! please..

    Too many teams to leapfrog? :confused: They're in third, and the second place team is one game ahead of them.

    They will be within striking distance with the top of the division but will blow it when they're forced to play a home game at a rival stadium while their hometown is being blown to ****

    Wildcard is coming out of the Central. The Cardinals and Astros are going to the playoffs.

    The Astros has make the playoffs with courage and are strong to mind.

    On an unrelated note, they also can haz cheezburger.

    Trade for Halladay, who cares about prospects

    Roy
    Halladay
    Cy Wandy

    and we have enough hitting

    trade, Norris/the jap pitcher and Castro for Halladay

    the astros might make the playoffs but i think they need another starter and a third baseman.

    is there any realistic possibility of trading for a #2/#3 and would that even be prudent in even further depleting an already famished farm? I know Wade said they won't be buyers, but I haven't kept up with anything else this year, so just curious.
