July 14, 200421 yr what the hell is this board gonna rant about when the trading deadline is over....and what if no more moves are made???
July 14, 200421 yr I don't see a point to this thread... But, I would be just fine, maybe I would like to see additional bullpen help though
July 14, 200421 yr Are you kidding me?! We'll still have all the rumors about who cleared waivers, who we can still get, and all that good stuff!! Plus we'll be able to debate whether to use Unit, FG and MB only or add in E-Lo in the playoffs!!
July 14, 200421 yr Ya know, what Hawk said to be a "Mind-Boggeling trade" a year ago could very well occur a year late! These next few weeks should be exciting.

You know, sometimes people look at teams, players and situations and using logic, come with possible scenarios. Possible being the key word. It's the type of thing that if you were a GM you'd call and ask about, anyway. It is NOT beyond the realm of possibility for Houston to trade Beltran and/or Clemens, considering they would have to jump over 5 or 6 teams just to get the NL wild card. Even Beltran has told his wife not to totally unpack.
July 14, 200421 yr Author no this is the best thread EVER.... haha i knew after my second post people would get angry..... i love it hahaha... its ok we got SOX baseball starting back up tomorrow YAY
July 14, 200421 yr no this is the best thread EVER.... haha i knew after my second post people would get angry..... i love it hahaha... its ok we got SOX baseball starting back up tomorrow YAY Sounds like we got Jay Mariotti here...
July 14, 200421 yr Sounds like we got Jay Mariotti here... Haven't I been telling you guys for like 3 months that he does come on here? He just decided to post now!
July 14, 200421 yr I think with Williams gone the Astros will turn their season around enough and won't ship Beltran before the deadline. It's more of a prediction, but the managerial change could have a big impact. Williams was just terrible with that team. Hopefully Ensberg can start playing every day and not feel the pressure of the Williams/Mike Lamb love fest that's been going on all year. They either turn it around or they are going to look like a completely, completely different team come next year. And it might not be a good one. A healthy, focused, rejuvenated Astros team has plenty of time to come up and grab the wild card. Who knows though, these next two weeks will tell a lot.
July 15, 200421 yr Williams? Mike Lamb? Managerial change? Did I miss something???? HOUSTON -- The Astros made it clear they're making one final push for the postseason, firing manager Jimy Williams Wednesday and bringing in Phil Garner.-from CBS Sportsline
July 15, 200421 yr what the hell is this board gonna rant about when the trading deadline is over....and what if no more moves are made??? Personally I'll be glad when the deadline gets here. Then we can all focus on winning the division and not on what coulda, shoulda happen tradewise.
July 15, 200421 yr Personally I'll be glad when the deadline gets here. Then we can all focus on winning the division and not on what coulda, shoulda happen tradewise. But this is so much fun. The speculation, discussing possibilities and probabilities. I love this stuff.
