Hi Ralph-- Yep, the Astros need to get their @@@@ together, quick.. Lidge is fading, IMO... They ALL need to learn to hit under pressure... Yesterday's game was a huge disappointment for me... Greg (PS--my 308 is ready to roll--PM me...)
Need to get rid of that over priced old dead weight called Roger Clemens. He can barely pitch one inning before he starts fading. He can't hit, he can't run. Total waste of money. $22 million could of been put to better use.
Yes R.C. has had some problems. What I heard from a commentator, was that basically R.C. is still in spring training form. It was mentioned, that he will probably need another three starts, before he will be ready for big league hitters. All of this time, the hitters are already sharp. Remember what Roger Clemens did last year for the Astros (during the regular season). Hopefully he will soon return to the form that we saw, at the beginning of last year. Without a combination of a consistent effective set-up and closer, the Astros will not be able to seriously compete. Greg PM sent !
