bobcatfan Posted August 6, 2010 Report Posted August 6, 2010 The Astros just lost 2 long time players that were cornerstones of their franchise. I think both wouldve liked to finish their career in Houston but i also think both wanted a shot at one more title and i cant fault them for it. Both seemed to express interest in possibly coming back to Houston before they retire. Berkman has always lived in Texas so i imagine he'll want to come back as soon as he can. Oswalt is still 1 win away from the club record and i really think he wanted and wants to break it. If i were voting on the poll, i may be on Oswalt over Berkman. While Berkman has more ties to the club with his hometown, he plays a position that has been filled by Brett Wallace while Oswalt plays a position that has 5 spots in a rotation. I think Oswalt has a little more incentive to come back with the club record in wins still in reach. What do you think though?
