Astros: Gauging the AL West as the offseason simmers

We as a society often focus on the final result when examining history. The victors of war, for example, are considered a focal point. When a war was won by one faction or another, they then held the influence to shape the world around them by their particular set of values and systems. Opposing parties either had to conform or discover how to remove the ruling system to institute their own. When the result is obviously detrimental to society, it is crucial to remember how we arrived at previous events, unless we want to repeat an undesirable result sometime in the future.
