OFFNY Posted June 30, 2016 Author Share Posted June 30, 2016 o After starting the season at an awful 7-17, the Astros have gone a blistering 35-20 since then, vaulting themselves to a respectable 42-37 overall record. Subsequently, they are currently sitting just half a game behind the Red Sox and the Blue Jays for the #1 Wildcard spot. o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

25 Nuggets Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 o(JUNE, 2013) o (3 And-A-Half Years Later) Back-to-back winning seasons. o They could have had winning seasons by now without putting themselves through so much awful baseball. They need to win in the postseason for the strategy to pay off IMO. And that's where the fault lies in their logic -- once you get in, anyone can win.

Overall, the Astros had 6 consecutive losing seasons between 2009 and 2014 before putting together back-to-back winners in 2015 and 2016. The Orioles, the Pirates, and the Royals all went through consecutive season losing streaks of much longer than that before finally turning their franchises around. I think that it's easy to say after the fact that they could have taken a more efficient route to putting a contender on the field. o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Ravine Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 The Astros close out the season with a dismal 8-1 loss to the mighty Angels. They finish 84-78, 11 games out of first and 5 games out of the wild card. All they need is starting pitching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
