    Don't hate on jennings. He's gotten us 2 wins. :hihi:

    Have to wonder if he ever got totally healthy when he went on the DL earlier in the season. He's pitiful.

    I love living in Houston and being able to listen to sports talk here. Everyday callers complain about Jennings and about what could have been with Willy T in center, between Lee and Pence.

    The Astros are likely screwed for a couple years. They do not have a single prospect that is prepared to help any time soon . There's Patton and couple of pitchers that are in AA, but are still at least a year or more away. They have no bargaining power with any of their washed out players (Ensberg etc) and therefore nothing to offer other clubs to boost their farm system.
    Poop-era has set this franchise back 10 years. And to think, NLCS and World Series for the Astros wasn't all that long ago. Now they're going to win 70-75 games max.

    Fontenot and Theriot are making me a Cubs fan. The Astros organization is down the chitter. Take a look.
