Stephen Goff talked to Ed Wade about Jim Crane's pending ownership and how busy he'll be come July.
"If indeed the timing is such that the deal closes before trade deadline, then certainly Mr. Crane and his group could have a significant impact on what we do and how we decide to go about it. If I were to assess the trading deadline this early, I would say we would barely be as busy as we were last year, especially since we traded two iconic players in Lance Berkman and Roy Oswalt, and had discussions on a number of other fronts. Obviously, a change in ownership could indicate a change in philosophy."
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
