They are lucky to still have a team in that shitkicker of a town. It's not as though they are being contracted or moved to a different market. They're STILL the Astros and they still play in Houston for god's sake. Selig should have just ignored the team just as its fans have all these years.

Houston is the 4th largest city in the US. Directly behind NY, LA and Chicago. All of which supports two teams. Just saying. I wouldn't consider them lucky to have a team.

I didn't say it was a small market, just that the town itself (along with most of Texas) blows.
