All Astro's Minor League Teams in Last Place

[KDOSullivan]

Got to looking at the standings of all Astro's minor league clubs.....From Rookie to AAA. They are all in last place in their leagues. ( The only one I could not figure out was the Dominican Rookie League. The one I saw online was in Spanish, and my high school Deutch does me no good there.)
Is this something for us to look forwards too???? :-\

Astros haven't had a minor league team over 500 in I think 3 years. Luckily they are finally trying to stock the minors after years of neglect. Its getting better slowly. Our minor system was ranked 30th in the beginning of 2010. Up to 26th already. So getting better.

One reason I have hope is bc of new owner and Bobby Heck sp their scouting director is suppose to be pretty good.

Johnson and Wallace just got a ticket back to minors.

Buster Olney said at the beginning of last season that the Astros farm system was a train wreck. That's never good...and they weren't too good. So why are they trading their good players the past two seasons...build the farm system like it was in the 90's.

[Ty Cobb]

Because they suck and by the time the organization is good again, the so called good players would either be gone or past their prime.  They have to trade anyone they can to build the farm system.  Then they have to get lucky and make a splash with some of the draft picks.  If they continue to follow this plan, astros fans will be happy again around 2017-2020.  If they don't follow this plan astros fans will only be happy when the team is sold and moved out of houston.

I agree with them trading the guys away.

i hope Barmes speaks spanish or he's gonna get lonely...

[puddin tane]

Cinco de mayo and Go Tejano Day should be sell outs...........

[shovel]

Cant put any of this blame on Crane yet, but I do wonder if he knows what he bought? I'm not sure I can lay a lot of blame on Ed Wade, though I cant let him off the hook either. It is gonna be a long dry spell for Astro fans. I dont see them fielding a winning team for years.

[Guest The-NHS]

We won't be competitive for another 5 years. This is going to be a painful stretch.

[braves24]

1. Jordan Schafer/CF
2. Jose Altuve/2B
3. Jimmy Paredes/3B
4. JD Martinez/LF
5. Jason Bourgeois/RF
6 Brett Wallace/Telvin Nash/Jonathan Singleton/1B
7 Jason Castro/C
8 Jiovanni Mierr/SS
9 Jordan Lyles/P


lineup has potential..

[spoonbill]

i haven't watched a ton of the games since all of the trades, but i find myself enjoying watching the team more now than before. at least it's interesting. if you're gonna lose anyway, at least make it interesting. i think what was done had to be done. hopefully the records of the minor league teams will get better and better with the infusion of youth. with that said they need to hurry up and sign springer and armstrong.
