... Those guys will be so excited about being in the big leagues that they might get Lance Berkman and Roy Oswalt really fired up. Mills is going to be a huge part of this equation as well in terms of tone, teaching, preparation, communication and overall competence. There's a window coming after the 2010 season in which Carlos Lee can be traded, and by the time the 2008 draft picks begin arriving...

... that breaks the rules. Ain't gonna publish it. Here goes: • Carlos Lee, Lance Berkman and Roy Oswalt won't be traded. They're on the books for $48 million. • Kaz Matsui, Brian Moehler and Geoff Blum are signed for contracts totaling $10 million. The Astros would like to dump Matsui and his $5.5-million salary on a Japanese team, but the chances of that happening are very, very...

... the , where he spent eight seasons serving as the starting catcher for All-Star pitchers such as Roy Oswalt, Andy Pettitte and Roger Clemens. In 2005, Ausmus played a critical role on a Houston team which made its first ever World Series appearance. He drilled a solo homer with two outs in the bottom of the ninth in Game 4 of the 2005 NLDS against the Atlanta Braves to tie the game 6-6 and...

Kaz Matsui, Brian Moehler and Geoff Blum have signed for deals worth $10 million. Wandy Rodriguez and Hunter Pence made around $3 million combined in 2009. You can probably pencil them in for at least $15 million in 2010. So we've filled...

Since the 2004 NLDS (when Roy Oswalt beat Jaret Wright), starters in the post-season working on short rest are 0 and 7. The record for starters working on short rest since 1999 is 9-28. The edge...

More photos » by Dino Vournas - AP Roy Oswalt, in a rare good mood Browse more photos » To lead off the starters section, I wanted to focus a little on Roy Oswalt . The soon-to-be 32-year old had his worst season as a professional, but was that a sign of aging and decline, or just a bump in the road? His BABiP shows he wasn't unlucky in 2009 and was right in line with his...
