The Astros' new acquisition
Does it seem like the Astros were in a great rush to get the Miguel Tejada deal done?
Given the rumors about Tejada and steroids, might the Astros have had more trade leverage if they had waited until AFTER the release of the Mitchell report?
Or, is it possible that given Drayton McLane's preference for the squeaky-clean, no deal would have been possible at that point, and if Ed Wade wanted to make the deal, it had to come BEFORE the release of the damning report (because the owner would nix any such deal today)?
And what might that say about the relationship between Ed Wade and the owner? For that matter, is that relationship the same as or different than it was under the previous two GMs?
It would be GREAT if this town had the sorts of sports journalists who would dig at those questions and try to come up with some answers.
