Yep I agree. Astros have been notorious for trading away good up and coming players for junk used up players. IMO I don't think Verlander wants to play anymore, I think he is going to ride out his contract and retire. Alos I thought that was what the farm system was for. To bring up kids that are showing great promise.
Any way we salvage game 3 on a 4 hit 5-4 win. Pitt had 9 hits. Mariners and Rangers both lose.
