That's really all that needs to be said.

heard someone on the radio say "he'll be good for 42 innings and 3 losses", pretty much sums it up.

We'd be better off re-signing Nolan Ryan...the decisions the Astros make are beyond me

Thank God-
"The Astros declined to offer salary arbitration to free agent Brad Ausmus, according to the associated press.Ausmus is now retired but the Padres are said to be trying to lure him out of retirement."

Hampton sucks. He's been hurt way too much. Wasted 1.2 mil if that's what they gave him. Probably worth more as a hitter than a pitcher, especially with that short porch in left field at minute maid.
