A recent rumor has been circling on Houston Astros‘ Twitter, where Htown Wheelhouse reported that the Sugar Land Skeeters are changing their team name to fit a space theme. This came over a week ago, but with more chatter going around on possible new team names, where do we stand on the discussion?
The Skeeters have been around since 2012, before they were bought by the Astros before the 2021 season. This new ownership has probably led to a name change pop into the mind of owner Jim Crane, who has embraced the space theme after the Astros’ rebranding in 2013.
