re: What is the big deal with the Astros to the American League

Truthfully... in my opinion, it comes down to Fan Passion. Moving from the NL to the AL will make me no less of an Astros fan. But, in my opinion, I enjoy NL rules and style of baseball compared to AL.
Consider, if LSU was forced to move to the Pac12? Most LSU fans agree that SEC football is more enjoyable. That is how I feel about the NL with baseball. This isn't about fans "not wanting to change" -- it is all about passion, and what factors go into building that passion over the long term. I've been a fan of the Astros, and a fan of the NL style of baseball for over 35 years. I am now being forced to change my values of what built those 35 years of passion. It will happen, just not overnight.
