Not a World Series winner. Not a major market team. It's the team on pace to have the worst season in MLB history. 2013 Houston Astros http://www.forbes.com/sites/danalexande ... n-history/ |

Have to disagree with Major Market statement, I think Houston is the 4th largest market in the country. |

The Astros probably have a lot of goodwill with their fans. They were good for a looooong time. |

Bulls best 5 season in terms of $$$ are the 5 years after Jordan left. Lowest payroll in the game and the 2nd largest attendance $$$'s. Good combo for owner However, you can only do that for so long. Hell Krause had to sign guys and overpay just to hit the league minimum! |

Quote: The Astros are on pace to rake in an estimated $99 million in operating income this season. That is nearly as much as the estimated operating income of the previous six World Series championship teams — combined. wow. i heard charlie sheen is making major league 3. maybe he will be traded to houston. |

Add another one to the list of teams that needs to tank for years in order to compete with the White Sox. |
