There is still no baseball on the horizon for those who follow Major League Baseball, domestically or aboard. In turn, there has been a struggle to generate content in a sport where nothing is going on besides tense labor negotiations or sign-stealing. Quite frankly, I am pretty tired of both topics.
That said, five writers here at TCB decided to come up with our own All-Time Astros teams. Here are the rules behind this draft madness:
- Players to have spent at least two full seasons as an Astro;
- To qualify at a certain position, player must have spent at least two full seasons with the position listed as primary;
- The only stats that count are those posted exclusively as an Astro;
- 15 players in total (8 position players, 1 DH, and 6 pitchers);
- 3 pitchers will be allowed to pitch two innings each (1st - 6th innings);
- The remaining 3 pitchers will pitch one inning apiece (7th - 9th innings).
