Houston (56-106): Baseball’s worst record was achieved after trading top P Roy Oswalt and OFs Michael Bourn and Hunter Pence. However, that let the Astros develop promising young players like OF J.D. Martinez (.274-6-35 in 226 AB) and OF Jason Bourgeois (.294, 31 SB in 252 AB). Veteran Carlos Lee hit .275-18-94 … The NL’s highest ERA (4.51) could not be blamed on Wandy Rodriguez (11-11, 3.49) or closer Mark Melancon (2.78 ERA, 20 saves).
