Three losses in a row. Now at best the Astros can have a .500 road trip. Their upcoming 13 game homestand will be critical. I think they need to go at least...
Schmidt has been great against us in the last four games so I'd say the offense just got outpitched yesterday. Lowry has a BAA of .270 against righties and we...
The Astros organization offered Beltran 115 mil, more money than BAGWELL has ever made as a 'Stro. yeah, fans are pissed that he jerked them around for even...
The Astros have fallen back into their early season habit of not getting timely hits. I hope they snap out of this tomorrow. They could really, really use a...
Purpura may learn a lesson here. Staying pat with a young team and the wild card race very hotly contested could be a mistake. Hunsicker was very aggresive...
Kent didn't so much leave for more money; he left for money period - as she wrote, "they didn't even offer him arbitration". He was willing to play for less...
I disagree with the statement "Kent left because there was no offer", "he was slighted". There was an offer. He was interviewed before the Houston series,...
Which is why we keep Ausmus around... cooool... So my best friend was at game, and I'm stuck ever so far away. I hate him. And you know what? He couldn't even...

Well, 8 games into this homestand the Astros are only 4-4. They had a great chance to pull away in the wild card spot. Instead, it looks like they will have...
Playing .500 ball aint gonna cut it. Let's home this next series against the Brews does us some good. Brady Clark has been out for about a week (injury) and...
I agree, we need some run support. With Pettitte and Oswalt losing and we have Wandy and Astacio in two out of the next three. We'll probably see a lot of...
Chris, I don't think Garner is saying he doesn't think the club will make the playoffs. He's saying that they won't count their chickens before they hatch. In...
Thank goodness the Rocket will be hitting the mound tomorrow. I've been worried after hearing all of this talk about his back hurting. We can't afford to lose...
good point. I guess I had the wrong meaning of the word presume in mind, or read it wrong. subprong <subprong@...> wrote:Chris, I don't think Garner is...
first week in September at best. I'm ready for him to return. Can you imaging Bagwell pinch hitting and Backe back on the mound around the same time. I would...
