    This season just keeps looking worse and worse. Who's next? Wallace or Johnson? The only thing to look forward to this season is watching the youngsters grow.. first Castro tears his knee up and now Happ is injured?

    Does anyone believe we can win a game against Philly?

    I expect to get swept.

    We swept them last year in Philadelphia in the 2nd half of the season. And even Halladay fell victim to the STROS!

    Also espn predictions are out

    Steve Berthiaume says were taking the central. He said we would win it months ago back in August. At least the guy is sticking with his pick.

    Yeah but this is April. In recent history April, May, and June have been most unkind to the Astros.

    Here's hoping they break their pathetic trend. Go Stros!

    My expectations are pretty low, so gonna be hard to disappoint me. Expect them to win around 70-75 games.

    I'm honestly more interested about whats happening in Lexington. Lancaster, and Corpus Christi than what happens in Houston.

    I love not having classes on Friday.... I'm waking up early to catch the Astros, as the game will be on at 10:05 out in Arizona.

    Props to Berthiaume indeed. I think he's nuts, though. :)

    I'll miss Opening Day for the first time in my memory, as I'm taking a deposition out of town. I might be able to catch some of it at the airport...hopefully.

    Astros reassign Tommy Manzella to Oklahoma City and designate Rowland-Smith for assignment

    I for one am surprised by the later. I think that leaves Abad as the only lefty in the pen. I suspect the Astros will fill the Hyphen's spot from the waiver wire.
