The Astros won the Carlos Beltran sweepstakes tonight, completing a three-way trade with Kansas City and Oakland. I’m happy for two reasons: the Yankees didn’t get him, and my prediction of a Boston/Houston World Series just got a little bit more likely.
Now all Houston has to do is get rid of that weird hill in center at the former Enron Field.
