king Posted July 30, 2011 Report Posted July 30, 2011 How many more years we predict our team to rise to top again?!?!
baddog Posted July 30, 2011 Report Posted July 30, 2011 Doesn't really matter to me anymore. I am officially not an Astros fan any longer.

Still reeling from this crapola. Football season is almost here, so I will have something else to do.
JohnnyT60 Posted July 30, 2011 Report Posted July 30, 2011 The Astros, the AAA+ farm team for the Phillies.
BrenhamFan Posted July 30, 2011 Report Posted July 30, 2011 Here's a good one, from a Chicago Cubs fan... Houston Lastros. They're keeping my Cubbies out of last place! ;)
walldrill Posted July 30, 2011 Report Posted July 30, 2011 If all goes well 4 yrs. Up to 6. Just hope its not 18 yrs like Pirates fans Are dealing with.
Guest beechnut Posted July 30, 2011 Report Posted July 30, 2011 With the owner coming in rumer has it that GM from Tampa could be here soon. Im upset and swear I wont go out but headed out early next week. They will be back and all teams go through this but this is THE OWNERS FAULT.
Ty Cobb Posted July 31, 2011 Report Posted July 31, 2011 If they do it right, build there farm system and promote, it will take anywhere from 6 to 10 years. They are off to a nice start by trading Pence. I realize that the astros fans are upset but Pence would not be there for the glory years anyway. Get something for him and if they have anybody else, get those guys traded as well.
adminbaberuth Posted July 31, 2011 Report Posted July 31, 2011 stros getting calls for bourn tonight, may go tonight. reds and bravespence 1-5 with rbi
king Posted August 4, 2011 Author Report Posted August 4, 2011 Its sad to know our team will suck for years to come.
baddog Posted August 21, 2011 Report Posted August 21, 2011 I'm over my Pence tantrum. Can I start watching again? I didn't realize how much I tuned in.
Guest beechnut Posted August 21, 2011 Report Posted August 21, 2011 Out here today and have to say that Altuve and Martinez are impressive. @ least there is some hustle now. C lee is a cancer and lazy pig and hope new owner cans him.
AJ25 Posted August 21, 2011 Report Posted August 21, 2011 Stop being an Astros fan, and be a baseball fan and you will realize how fun these guys are to watch. So young and playing so hard. Up until today they won 4 straight.. I say 2 years. [b]2 years[/b]. You heard it here first ;)
Guest beechnut Posted August 22, 2011 Report Posted August 22, 2011 I really like the Martinez and Altvue sp kids bc they play hard and are hungry. HOWEVER I do not trust Wade bc of his stupid moves since hes been here. I do like Bobby Heck they scouting director and hope he hangs around. Not sure why its taking so long to give the green light to Crane but something is up on that. MLB wonders why they suck compared to NFL all they have to do is look in the mirror. Their method of business sucks crap and do not trust Bud Selig at all. Hope we get the deal done soon and they clean house and bring in the GM from Tampa Freidman and life will be good.
adminbaberuth Posted August 23, 2011 Report Posted August 23, 2011 Wandy Rodriguez CLAIMED on waivers. Team not yet known.
AJ25 Posted August 23, 2011 Report Posted August 23, 2011 [quote name="adminbaberuth" post="1039758" timestamp="1314123624"]Wandy Rodriguez CLAIMED on waivers. Team not yet known.[/quote]Yessss trade him! It apparently isn't the Yankees, Dbacks, or the Nationals. Whatever that means.
Ruckdad Posted August 23, 2011 Report Posted August 23, 2011 Sports 790 is reporting that it's the Colorado Rockies. Who knows what will happen as far as trade prospects.
AJ25 Posted August 23, 2011 Report Posted August 23, 2011 Apparently not much motivation to get this move done by Houston.. Also, the Rockies are short on prospects and not many pitchers are crazy of the idea at pitching in the Mile high city. It'll be interesting to see what happens.. They have until noon-ish Thursday to get a deal done or he'll remain in Houston through the rest of the year.
Guest beechnut Posted August 23, 2011 Report Posted August 23, 2011 If the Crane deal falls out wonder who is next in line? I never like Wandy when he came up early but over the last couple of years he grew up. Nothing like watching a left with junk pitch.
JohnnyT60 Posted August 24, 2011 Report Posted August 24, 2011 Basically the Rockies made sure either they get him or no one does. One thing that better not happen, is they better not pay him to play for someone else, like Oswalt. Either they work out a good deal or pull him back. Personally, you should never trade your pitching away. Prospects or like potential, it just means you haven't done anything yet, and really how many prospects do you need? How about players.

We're not losing a stud, we're losing a 3 or 4 pitcher in most team's rotations. If they can get 2 prospects in return that have what it takes, then we'll see ya later Wandy.
adminbaberuth Posted August 24, 2011 Report Posted August 24, 2011 Wandy at Coors today: 4 IP, 8 H, 6 R, 4 ER, 2 HR.
AJ25 Posted August 24, 2011 Report Posted August 24, 2011 Wade said today that his "gut feeling" is that Waaandy will be sticking around in Houston.
