If he wins 16 games this year, he will become the all-time winningest Astros pitcher. Surpassing the late Joe Niekro's mark of 144 victories:)

I think that's do-able for him. They have an offense that can score runs. When Roy's not pitching they'll give up more runs than they score....

oswalt should get his 16 wins if he stays healthy...and if something weird happens where he has an off year he definitely will have it next season.....

one thing is certain about the astros, whatever they are expected to do they seem to always overachieve...so we will see what happens...all indications are this will be a bad year but i thought that last year as well and they were in the wild card race til the final week.....

It's hard to believe that Joe Niekro is really the all time leader. He was a good pitcher, but they've had some outstanding pitchers in their history. Too bad JR couldn't have stayed healthly because he'd have set the standard.

I think 76 wins this year for Hampton is do-able as well
