PA SportsTicker Assistant Baseball EditorIt looked bad, it looked good, it looked wet, and it looked depressing.
The Houston Astros had one of the more interesting seasons in the major leagues, and only briefly in a positive way.
The Astros made the curious decision in the offseason to bring in general manager Ed Wade - a man whose claim to fame was being just good enough in Philadelphia to stay around .500 while never building the farm system or being fiscally responsible.
Luckily for Wade, Houston owner Drayton McClane wants to win as much as possible without taking the time to build the team in a way that will promote sustainable success......
In anticipation that some of the community at-large would like to share their opinions of Mr. Covill's assessment (particularly his apparent ignorance
regarding the current Phillies roster and Wade's contributions), I've located an e-mail address:
