Well boys. It’s over. Even with all the injuries, the Astros had every chance to make a run this year. There is something amiss in that group. Everything feels different. Keep the core and clean out the rest. Starting with the coaches and GM. My girlfriend says Espada is a ball-less pussy. If she sees it, says it, then far be it from me to argue. That’s exactly how they have played lately. Clubhouse needs a shakeup. It’s gotten old and complacent. It needs bold and aggressive thinking. I don’t think Brown and Espada bring either of those things. Framber should have been traded, not as a white flag for the season, but an attempt to get better now and the future. Hell I’d have traded him last year when we were treading water to make the playoffs. It didn’t, and it doesn’t, have to be this way. Fortune is for the bold.
See ya in February. It’s hunting and bbq season now. Houston rodeo cookoff and spring training only 5 months away.
