Face it, the only people happy about the Astros season this year are just about all baseball fans who live outside Houston and still obsess about thrash cans.
In other words, almost everyone.
For the rest of us living near Houston spoiled by continued dynastic success, the season has been a nightmare.
As of this writing, the Astros are three games from the midway point of the season, two games under .500, and six games out of first place in the AL West. If the Astros improve slightly in the second half and manage to win 81 games, that would leave them about fourteen games below most projections.
