    Talk about the series here. Please no PBP in this thread. Unless otherwise noted all games are on CSN-H (for about 40% I guess).

    4-8 Brett Oberholtzer, LHP vs. Mark Buehrle, LHP 6:07

    4-9 Lucas Harrell, RHP vs. Brandon Morrow, RHP 6:07

    4-10 Dallas Keuchel, LHP vs. Dustin McGowan, RHP 6:07

    I think we'll get our bats going to take the series 2-1.

    Wednesday's game is on ESPN2, so the world gets to see Lucas Harrell. That should be... fun.

    At least his final start will be televised... goodness. Peacock doing poorly in relief has been zero help for dethroning the guy.

    Why are there searching through google images during the game? Are the Stros really that unbearable to watch?

    Guzman takes pitches right down the middle and then chases 2 outside.

    This home plate ump has been downright terrible.

    Because they're not very good baseball players.

    But yeah, I don't know either.

    Not having Fowler is killing our offense. Hopefully he gets back soon

    Should be back today. You have to think Harrell is pitching for his rotation spot. Another complete dud and he has to be out of the rotation for Peacock.

    With Fowler being someone with a little pop in his bat and the early success of Villar, would y'all prefer to see Villar take the top spot of the lineup, move Fowler to #2 and Grossman to 9 (or off the lineup for that matter)? I feel like this would be promising.

    Fowler, Altuve, Springer, Castro, Dominguez/Carter should be the 1-5.
