Phil Ponebshek of SABR points out that the Astros need to play .500 ball (33-33) the rest of the way to avoid having the fewest wins in franchise history. The inaugural 1962 team, helmed by the man pictured here, Harry Craft, set the low bar at 64 (which was later tied by the 1975 team). The prospects for the 2011 Houston version inspire about as much confidence for quality baseball as this photo.
