thats too bad, I liked Ruhle back when the Astros had the best Unis and the Astros were in the Bad News Bears

Ruhle was talked about a bit up here since he wore the English D in the 70's. A good pitcher that went on to coach for many years before cancer struck him down before the start of last season.
