Astros remind me of the Phillies from a decade ago.

Stacked team with pitching and hitting. Won early. Got better every year in the regular season while gradualy doing worse in the postseason (Losing to the eventual champs every time...I'll always remember Howard looking at the pitch the one year, then swinging so hard he snapped his ankle the next to end seasons). Ultimately underachieved and it was sad.

But they did bring the first championship to the city while I was alive and that was pretty sweet.
