    The Astros are moving from the NL to the AL.
    That means the real league has to play the non-pitcher-hitting-pansy league all year from April to September.
    Two more teams are going to make the playoffs.

    I don't like any of it.

    Ditto. Especially considering that the 2 extra playoff teams will only play a 1 game playoff. Next Selig wants the DH in the NL. Ugh.

    I may have to give up baseball if that happens.

    I think there is a pitcher hit league in Japan somewhere you can follow.

    I am glad Houston is coming into the AL West. And not just because the Rangers can pad their won loss record.

    OK, good. I'll call my cable company to see if they carry it.

    If they are going to screw around, how about putting the Rays in the National league!! They would rule!

    Put Filly in the AL east! :D

    Wow. What a division that would be. The Marlins, Braves, Rays, and Nats. 4 teams who couldn't draw flies if they covered their seats in horse manure.

    Dude. I have been a Ranger fan since the 70's. Do you really think I would be upset with a pennant? I am still happy to just be in the playoffs.

    Save that for another decade or two when we are a dynasty unable the win the big one after five or six chances.
