I am as impressed with rookie third baseman Chris Johnson's play as you are. He has been phenomenal since the All-Star Break. Go by his numbers alone - his batting average (.378 entering Saturday), on-base-plus-slugging (1.021) and RBI total (27)...
Pedro Feliz approached me the other day and asked me if I knew why the Astros were keeping him around, well aware of the fact that most players in his situation find themselves released at this point in the season....
So this is the Bud Norris the Astros wanted to see, the Bud Norris that, until recently, they had only caught sneak peeks of — few and far between and mostly against the Cardinals. Norris' record-setting performance — his 14...
Matt Lindstrom blew his second save opportunity in five days Tuesday in a 4-2 loss to the Braves. So do the Astros need a new closer? No. What they need is a healthy closer. Lindstrom is battling back spasms that...
The Astros turned a promising road trip into a wasted opportunity, dropping the last four games on their way to being swept out of Milwaukee. How's that for a team that just days ago had pounded on the National League...
After having their longest winning streak of the season halted at seven Thursday night, the Astros are enjoying an off day in Milwaukee ahead of their series against the Brewers. Some thoughts from the Cardinals series, the Astros' success of...
Brett Myers, who takes the mound against the Cardinals tonight at Busch Stadium, is the Astros' new ace. Deal with it. With Roy Oswalt gone, the team has turned to Myers to anchor a pitching rotation that remains in flux...
Fans — and the media who cover the team — will miss Lance Berkman, who is poised to join the New York Yankees via trade. Not only is he a heck of a player — sure, an aging one, but...
Ask and you shall receive. Hours after saying he was hopeful the Astros would not drop a deal on his lap right before the trade deadline, Roy Oswalt is getting ample time to mull his options. Oswalt has been presented...
With the Cardinals cooling off on him and the Dodgers exploring less pricey pitching options ahead of Saturday's trading deadline, the Philadelphia Phillies appear to offer Roy Oswalt the best chance at playing for a contender this season. The Phillies,...
Daren Haren being traded to the Angels likely means Roy Oswalt will be the next ace to get a new team. The Diamondbacks traded Haren to the Angels in exchange for lefthander Joe Saunders, two minor league pitchers and a...
Roy Oswalt is being eyed by the St. Louis Cardinals. The Twins have inquired about him. And the Phillies are still in the hunt. Oh, yes. That list of potential suitors is growing. I didn't think this at first when...
This much I can tell you about the Astros and the Phillies: They are in advanced discussions regarding a possible trade, one that is almost guaranteed to involve a pitcher. The Phillies need an ace-quality starter and the Astros have...
