Gut response: who will be better in 2010, the Astros or the Royals?
2009 Records: Houston: 74-88, Kansas City: 65-97
2009 Pythag: Houston: 68-94, Kansas City: 66-96
The Astros has a pretty hilarious roster in 2009: Aaron Boone, Darin Erstad, Mike Hampton, Jeff Fulchino, Jeff Keppinger and Mike Hampton all played for them. Of course, the Royal roster was also funny, as they sported Bruce Chen and Sidney Ponson, among others.
Key Astro Additions: Brett Myers, Jason Michaels, Brandon Lyon, Pedro Feliz, Cory Sullivan
