Observant people. People who notice that most teams in MLB exhibit ethnic diversity. And the Astros DO NOT. Lots o' people ask questions about observations they've made. What kind of people answer questions with another question? People who are not very observant or people who just don't know the answer.

Because the Astros don't matter?

Why is it that there must be diversity in every aspect of life anymore? The United States is supposed to be a free country, where you can do whatever you want to do. If it is that big of a deal stop going/watching games and if a large enough portion of the population agrees then with a drop in revenue, the Astros will diversify.

No one says anything because it doesn't matter. Some fans and the media play this up to much. No MLB GM would pick a Brad Penny over a Johan Santana because the player is ethnic. The only reason to pick a Penny over a Santana is because of fiances.

Brad Ausmus' mother is Jewish, making him Jewish under Jewish law. Willy Taveras is Latino. Other than those two players, you're right, I can't think of any other ethnic players on the Astros team.

The Red Sox have a great history of disregarding ethnic players, too.

What kind of people notice such things? Maybe it's just a coincidence
