Tal will continue the fine Astros tradition of absolutely refusing to sign any player to anything long term or longER term while he is still cheap

But I digress…So Ed, “working with” Tal will continue the fine Astros tradition of absolutely refusing to sign any player to anything long term or longER term while he is still cheap (see Roy Oswalt and Lance Berkman or ANY other young player) as well as overpaying for players in their decline years, as long as they are ex-Phillies.And yes, I know that Drayton still holds the reins around Ed's throat, and yes I know that in spite of replica Longines L4.716.4.12.6 watch Bobby Heck, Drayton STILL won't pay much for draftees and he STILL won't let Heck get the best player (see Smoak vs Castro) and it remains to be seen if Drayton will actually allow Brad Mills to play players with an eye FIRST to winning instead of attendence not to mention refusing to allow him to play young guys instead of the Jason Smiths of the baseball world.

Ed Wade's strength, as I have said many times, is getting cheap relievers off the scrap heap.Unfortunately, it is his ONLY strength.Until Drayton changes his attitude, unfortunately, Ed Wade is going to be the GM for a long LONG time replica Longines L2.648.4.78.3 watch unless, as the saying goes, he is caught with a live boy or dead girl.shrugsighIt's unbelieveably hard to remember that the Astros won the pennant only 5 years ago that they have slid this far, this fast into lousiness is tough to swallow.sighThe Astros are passing out their?propaganda about this year's schedule being good for one of their old “patented” late season runs for the postseason.Uh-hunh.

I know bettern that.But still, there are a few guys to root for besides hoping that Bourn and Wandy can keep it up, that Pence and Clank will?maintain?and that Berkman and Oswalt can get it BACk up.So here are my big hopes for this year:1) Tommy replica Longines L2.671.4.78.6 Men's watch Manzella hits at LEAST .250 in April to shut up a couple of the Astros fans who think that Miggy Tejada was the Best Player EVAH had (besides The Saints) because he hit 300.
