This isn't a statement against the Astros, it's a statement about the fact the fewer and fewer young black men are playing baseball. They're playing basketball and football instead.
I'm going to agree with JLB here. While I don't think the writer of the story conveyed this well, I believe the actual story is that there are not very many young blacks interested in playing baseball anymore. I've seen several similar stories over the last few years, and none of them tried to spin it quite the way this writer did. MLB has many major city efforts to try to reverse this trend, but it doesn't seem to be working.
