Jimmy Williams fired as manager of Huston Astros
With the amount of money they spent this year on free agent pitchers Andy Petit and Roger Clemens plus the Killer B's in the middle of the lineup I cannt believe they are just .500 at the break. Another kick in the ass for Williams was his relationship with Richard Hidalgo, who was benched and wasnt played. Since being traded to the NY Mets he has hit more homeruns in 3 weeks than he did in the previous months with the 'Stros.
