If pitching, speed, and defense are what they're after, then Houston is indeed going the "rebuild" route. They'll be helped some by Drayton's wallet, which he has been willing to pull out on many notable ocassions, but the franchise desperately needs to grow (draft) more top notch players. Wade has had his detractors, but he's a pretty smart baseball man and has close connections to a lot of the Houston brass, notably Tal Smith. We'll see. Go Brewers--kick the sorry Cubs and their idiot drunken fans to the curb. The next guy (or gal) I see in a Cubs hat gets it right in the mouth. I feel better now.
