I wouldn't mind bringing in Lance Berkman or even Adam Dunn to the Astros. Both are Houston-area guys. And first base is a position of weakness for Houston right now. Brett Wallace has a lot of promise but he struggled a lot last season when the Astros acquired him. Didn't live up to the hype. Hopefully a full off-season and perhaps some winter ball will help him progress.

Houston had Chris Johnson at third base. He was quite a surprise and put up respectable numbers, displayed some power also. Hunter Pence got hot after the All-Star break. Those two guys (along with the starting rotation) carried the team and were a big reason Houston won a lot of games in the second half.

I would feel better with an upgrade at first base, second base and shortstop though.

Ryan i am pretty sure that they came out and said you would be passing on berkman, and assumningly any other first basemen. In the long run, this is probably a good idea. Might as well see what what has to offer.

But yea you guys should look into bringing in a SS with some pop, maybe hardy or someone looking to rebound.

You're a fucking retard. Werth is so much better than Crawford. I don't even know why you post here, you are a complete fucking idiot.

You should stop thinking, you are bad at it. If they can get someone the same price and way more value than Crawford I am sure they would be willing to spend for it. The problem with Crawford for them is that he isn't the best bang for their buck with the available free agents.
