If they make Crane take us in the American League, I'm going to be really, really mad for a long, long time...

I'll be really, really mad for a short time and then find something else to do over the summer.

Bud Selig has been a disaster for fans (yet a godsend for owners). Sadly I am a fan, not an owner.

Did you see Astros beat the Astros North/Phillies 5-1 last night. And holding on a record setting loss season with what, 15 games to go. Poor Oswalt.

Not sure I care if Astros are in AL or NL in future, they have shifted around before. I would like to see the sale deal done, so perhaps Crane can bring in some good pitchers for next years team to give us a little hope things will improve back to playoff form sooner rather than latter.

Crane's going to cut the payroll in half, dude; he's not bringing in anybody.

Yeah, much of the money is borrowed so Crane is going to build the team on the cheap to start with.

Here's the latest I'e had to say about this:

Funny. I am a Panamanian and I do love Carlos Lee. I won't miss him too much in 2013, but I like watching him play.

The Astros have never played as part of the AL. There have been division realignments a couple of times over the years. I kinda felt sorry for Roy O, too. It seemed he could never get run support when he played here. Ironic, isn't it?
