They strikeout too much.

Last in the AL in hitting - .199 avg (only the Mets in the NL are worse at .190). Tonight's lineup had exactly 3 players hitting over .200. Take a bow Dexter Fowler (.381), Jose Altuve (.297) and Jonathan Villar (.226).

Surprisingly, they are tied for 3rd (out of 30) with 11 home runs.

Yes, it's early....

So far, Scott Feldman (2-0) is the "ace". lol

Crane has pretty much alienated an entire fan base by moving the team to the AL, pinching pennies and taking away local TV. But there's a lot of new blood in the pipeline..... I will follow them because I'm a Houstonian - that is what local fans do - root, root, root for the home team.
I like your attitude Arky ! Now nothing gets it for me like the NFL and the Texans, but I will still follow and root for the Astros (same with the Rockets), maybe even get a hat or T-shirt. But it would sure help if the games were on TV.
