What do you think? Could the Astros actually break even on the record this season?
Or is the team still a year away?
Either way, I don't think that this squad will be looking at another 100+ loss season.
Everyone remembers that Houston has a baseball team, right? They play down in the Juice Box, near the GRB.
Can the Astros finish with a .500 record?

Re: Can the Astros finish with a .500 record?
They will win 90+ games and I will still not be able to watch them, curse you Suddenlink!
Seriously though, I have no idea what to predict record wise, but I am looking forward to this season more so than I have in ages(since the Fat Elvis and Wizard of Os era).
I saw that Singleton is going to start in AAA, which is disappointing. Seems like he started off hot in ST and then sucked taint the last few weeks. I hope he gets it together and proves he belongs at the MLB level.
You think we'll see Correa at some point this season? Will we break the record for most K's and most HR's in a season? Will Altuve continue to make us all less sad about Biggio being old and retired? Do we actually have a legit MLB roster for the first time since...uh...hmmm...holy tits it really has been that long hasn't it?!
Go ex-Lastros!

We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

I think they will finish a couple games above .500. They have made some moves to get better mainly no more Matt Dominguez at third, that guy was putrid. They need to finish above .500 so they will increase the payroll once more and get a Ace

Re: Can the Astros finish with a .500 record?
I was hearing a few weeks ago that it would be in the Astros best interest to bring Correa up at some point this season. I think it was Palillo saying that it wouldn't affect his free agency and that the team could still lock him up through the age of 27 one way or the other.
