Astros-Space Cowboys game is off, but Sugar Land will start season on time

At least we’re getting some baseball. I say we go hard for the Space Cowboys and AAA teams to make the MLB jealous.

Article:
The Space Cowboys, who changed their name from the Skeeters in January, open their season April 5 in Sacramento. Their first home game is April 12 against the Round Rock Express. Single-game tickets go on sale March 9.

Astros' Lance McCullers blasts baseball owners as lockout continues

Lance McCullers has deactivated his Twitter account, but here’s what he tweeted about baseball owners and the lockout as negotiations stalled today.

“It’s mind blowing these dudes legitimately caused these issue & continue to lie about it,” McCullers posted on Twitter in a quote-tweet of the Houston Chronicle’s Chandler Rome’s statement from ownership.

“Walk out on us in Dallas. Lock us out. Don’t speak to us for 6 weeks. Take weeks at a time to respond to our proposals. Clearly don’t care about fans, baseball or the game. It’s exhausting.”

McCullers is referencing the 10-minute meeting owners had with the players association on Dec. 1 in Dallas, a day before they decided to lock out the players until a new collective bargaining agreement could be reached. After the lockout was imposed, there was a six-week delay before the two sides met again.

The full story by Chron’s Matt Young is here.
