Like Jerry Jones, The Grocer thinks he knows more than he does and meddles far beyond his capabilities. Jones has been arguably the worst thing that ever...

Three more Astros file for free agency Tejada, Hawkins and Boone test open market By Brian McTaggart / MLB.com 11/06/09 9:22 PM EST HOUSTON -- Miguel Tejada's...
Alright, in honor of free agency, here is my all Free Agent Team! I bet this team could go to the World Series! C: Bengie Molina 1B: Jim Thome 2B: Placido...
I wonder if that team could beat the Yankees. They seem to have a stronger outfield and middle relief core. Any thoughts on the Stros signing Lackey? There...
Well, will he be up with the club in 2010? Will Towles? There are a ton of free agent catchers this season. ... Astros put an end to Castro's season Catcher...
Honestly, I think Lackey would be worth the money. With a 1-2-3 starting rotation of Lackey, Oswalt and Rodriguez, we would have a sizable advantage over...
Crawford would be great but we don't need him or really have a place for him. Our outfield of Bourn, Pence and Lee is currently our biggest strength....
I would love to see us pick up Figgins but that is because I like speedy players. With the speed of Bourn, Figgins, Matsui and Pence we would easily have one...
Speaking of speedy types, this guy may end up being one heck of a pick up by Wade. Speedy guy who has played middle infield and all outfield positions in the...

Hey, keep in mind that after a bad year in 2008, Bourn went to winter ball, put up good numbers and managed to make a big turn around in 2009. Maybe after a...
I should go to winter ball then. 2009 sucked… From: houstonsbrandofbaseball@yahoogroups.com [mailto:houstonsbrandofbaseball@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of...
I highly doubt that article's prediction for Tejada. It has him signing a one-year deal for 4 million dollars with the Mariners. I am willing to bet that the...
There's also speculation about the Phillies nabbing him for 3rd base. Also read that the As are weak at 3rd and SS. Not exactly a winner of a team but it...

Well, the Astros may not be interested in more than one season. They may be able to offer him a second year as a team option. One of the reasons I would...
Given the options (Tejada or the platoon or Blum/Keppinger/Johnson), it seems as though we won't be seeing a whole lot of power at that position next season....
I am surprised that the Astros wouldn't protect Koby Clemens and Drew Locke in the Rule 5 draft. The only players that they protected were all relief pitchers...
For the record, the home ballpark that Clemens was playing in this past season is a big time hitters park. It's like Coors Field of yesteryear where the...
