    there are only 2 possible outcomes for this series IMO.

    1. Astros win 2 out of 3
    2. Astros get swept by the Reds.

    That seems to be the trend.

    I'm thinking we take 2 out of 3 again. Volquez will be the L.

    Astros win. Lady Liberty agrees.

    crappy vs crappy... just like spy vs spy. Does it really matter who wins?

    I have lost all faith in Roy this year. They should just bench him and wait for next season.

    Well with Volquez looking more vulnerable lately if Roy pitches well we could win 3.

    Course the Astros are a threat to BE swept by any team at any time.

    I'll split the diff and guess WWL Astros.

    See this is one reason why I hate our fans. Our crowd has been dead since the start of our season. If we want to make a run we will need better crowd support. That means pack crowds every home game.

    If only if we were the Cubs.

    Wow. I hope I'm not jumping the gun, but three straight strikeouts after having a runner on third with none out -- that's the kind of dominance the old Oswalt had. Hope it's a good sign.
