Probably an unpopular opinion, but to me it appears the Astros fired a good man because he couldn't make chicken salad out of chicken s#*t! As long a Drayton McLane pinches his pennies, they never will field a winner. You can't blame Cooper for the owner and GM's management tactics. There may be somebody out there who can motivate the aging veterans and rag-tag youngsters into a few more wins, but they will never be Champions. McLane would have to make a commitment to do so and wont part with the money required to build a consistant winner. All the long suffering Astros fans have to look forward to is more of the same.

Should have fired Ed Wade

Shouldn't he be helping them rebuild a non-existant farm system?

Exactly - that is what he was brought in here to do.  The Astros have the worst farm system in baseball.  Thanks to Timmy P.  Ed Wade has an uphill battle trying to replenish the farm system and also try to keep the MLB club competitive.  It is an impossible task.  All those that want to fire Ed Wade, what would you have done differently coming into the season that would have this team contending ahead of the Cards?

Look at the Phillies.  All those guys were drafted by Ed Wade.  Give him a chance to build something - Gerry Husicker didn't do it overnight either.
