I doubt you even have a collage education. If you did, you would know that. All they need is 2 starting pitchers, a 3rd baseman and a SS that can get you tru the season if that happens my prediction is for them to be competitive. im an Stros fan and to get something straight Jason Castro should be rated higher he was the starting catcher for the US team this summer and has been called up tru the minors faster than anybody i could remember but youre an idiot so i dont expect you to know that.

You are correct the Astros are need of some major repairs but then again so does this blog!! Yes I am a Stros fan and no I don't need a reality check I watched nearly every game they played last year, but come on write something with some substance here will you please. Why not write about the Cubs sucking since they spent like 50 million more on their payroll then we did last year for a grand total of 9 more wins than us, or perhaps you could write about the other 7 teams in the league who were worse than us.

Pujols every year and I’ll believe your stuff'....so for me it just takes 1....1 good draft after another...1 desperate young kid who wants a chance to prove himself for a new team...and 1 complete goal for the whole organization...which I believe is build the basement before the roof...

You are not an expert if you start a post by saying "the Astros suck". Really? That is all you have to say? I expected to read a few offseason moves that would help the Astros compete in 2010, or at least moves that would put the team on the right track for 2011. Unfotunately all I got was "trade everybody"... I will never waste my time visiting Ump Bump again. There is no analysis here. You are not an expert if you start a post by saying “the Astros suck”.
