How Come is it the Astros have not had an Honorable Hall of Famer?

 I feel how come is it the Astros have not had an Honorable Hall of Famer? I feel with Craig Biggio not earning "The Honorable" Fair and Square like other Baseball Hall of Famers, I really have a problem with why the Astros can't just vote Cooperstown?

The Baseball Rangers have Nolan Ryan in the Hall of Fame, mainly as a Bargaining Chip to save Baseball in Dallas-Fort Worth and they where tired of all their Stars getting traded. But, the Closest they have to an In House Hall of Famer is Pudge Rodriguez, which his Hall of Fame Bid was Clouded by Steroid Allegations they could never prove.

The Anaheim Angels do not have All Time Hall of Famers in their Outfield and historically, they'd have Cedar Rapids Hall of Famers, but, not Baseball Hall of Famers as that disconnect is problematic in both Orange and Linn Counties.

I Was Not Kidding When We Where Nearing as Many No Hitters As Nolan Ryan!

 I was not kidding when we where nearing as many No Hitters as Nolan Ryan! To peel this onion off the streets, the Ryan Express didn't go into Overdrive until he came back to Texas as an Astro. To praystarve it out, we did not have 8 No Hitters in the 1970's.

It is like the Home Run Race, the other way and we don't have as many Great Call Ups coming up or having to lid Elizabethtons , which is Tins whenever a Cedar Rapids Kernel acted up in the field or in public. A large portion of it is the pressures of a Pandemic Shortened Season Last Year and a Labor Negotiations No One Really Wants to Work Hard At Back to Back.

In this reality, after the Twin Hex Breakers of the Royals and the Cubs, we have had The Astros, The Red Sox, The Nationals and their Surreality, and the Dodgers not winning at Dodger Stadium. All these No-Hitters will force the hand of a Multi-matic Play-In Playoff and not just Idle Chatter.

We've had Lasorda, Hammerin' Hank, and Atlanta all cause a disordered ruckus this Season. I feel Major League Baseball has to make it right to Los Angeles, with a rider of a Replacement Dodger Stadium, and Atlanta at some point, too. If I was Mr. Manfred, I am as chaotic as Elmo is on Sesame Street.

We do not have the answers, and this is the opposite of the Hardball going out like some of these images. It is, instead, everyone thinking they are Randy Johnson or Roger Clemens.
