[FOX 26] ASTROS REMAIN INTERESTED IN PATTERSON

Ed Wade, Houston Astros General Manager, told FOX 26 Sports on Saturday that former Washington Nationals pitcher John Patterson has cleared waivers and is a free agent. Wade said the Astros have made contact with Patterson's agent, Houston-based Alan Hendricks, about potentially signing him.

i like the idea of signing Patterson, he could make a decent number 4 starter in the rotation. even though he sucked with the nationals last season

If he's not better than Woody, who is at BEST a mediocre 5th starter, how can he possibly be good enough to even crack the rotation?
