Steeee-RIKE! Again.

I saw a new billboard on 290 this morning: "The Houston Astros: It's a whole new ball game!" It certainly is...

After being on the wrong side of Yu Darvish's near-perfect game on Tuesday, then being shut out again on Wednesday — this time 4-0 by Alexi Ogando and the Texas Rangers — the Astros have set a record for most strikeouts in a three-game series to start a season.

A positive spin for Rangers fans: this means your team set a record for strikeouts to start a season. In fact, all three Rangers starting pitchers set career highs for strikeouts against the Astros.


Rebuilding after an ownership change is admittedly difficult, but this is just ridiculous. What did they do in spring training? Chase whores? A tee-ball team could challenge them at the plate; a minor league team would hand them their asses on a platter.

What can you say. They're just carrying on the tradition for Houston Professional sports. Aside from the rockets championships while MJ was playing baseball the only winners in Houston were our hockey team. :)
