2nd – This team is not essentially the same team. Howard stayed here because of Gillick. Cole was brought up by Gillick and not traded away. Vic/Werth/Dobbs all have been key role players and do not have anything to do with Wade. Perhaps our most important bullpen peice, Romero, has nothing to do with Gillick. The decision to save our pen from an aging Gordon and throw Bret Myers in there, Gillick did that. Now PG does get a little knock for signing Gordon, but Gordon was big for us last year and against the Mets in September. Moyer? PG got him. He also got Eaton for better or worse, but Eaton has been huge against the Mets and IF we do get to the playoffs and pass the Mets Eaton is a huge reason why.
Gone are Thome and Bell and Leiby and Wolf and Abreu. So really only J-Roll and Burrell and Utley and Myers and Madson are still here as key players from the Wade era. So NO, this is not the same team. Especially with Kendrick, because Ed Wade would have gone out and got some shtick like Trachsel and not bring up Kendrick.
Oh yeah I almost forgot….ROWAND.
This team is by no means the same as it was in the Ed Wade era. Before when players struck out they simply had that confused look on their faces like Pat Burrell or Abreu but now they actually have emotion and seem to care.

Ha! The ‘stros hired Ed Wade?! Good luck in the basement fellows. We look forward to consummating many trades with you.
