Geoff Blum told reporters after G162 that he will not be returning in 2011, with the Astros paying the $150,000 buyout instead of exercising his $1.65m option in 2011.
Blum:
"I do know that I will not be here. I'll miss being here, trust me. I've had several conversations with people within the organization and my services are not going to be needed here."
Back on September 6, we had a little poll asking what you would do with Blum's option. 61% of you said you would exercise it.
