    Other than the game where Giles was obviously not prepared, he has been good for a long time.

    He isn't Kimbrel or Jansen like some thought he would be when we dealt for him; but overall he has done a really good job this season.

    I'll be there tomorrow with some clients from Kent, right outside of Seattle. I'll also be there Sunday with my brother to see Verlander own b****es.

    I'm not sure what gives me more pleasure...an Astro win or reading the game thread during/after an Astro win.

    I'd like for Astros and Angels to win tmrw (assuming Angels win tonight) so Verlander can clinch the title for his new team in a complete game shutout.

    Overuse maybe? This happened with Devenski this year.

    Game begins in 15 minutes.

    Why so early?

    He most certainly was not overused this year, the first half he only had 32 outings which is a fairly soft schedule for a reliever. If a reliever stays healthy he should be able to make 65-70 appearances in an average year.

    His arm just doesn't seem to be capable of going a whole season out of the bullpen with a normal workload, The second half falloff is a clear trend at this point. We need to give him a very soft workload next season, or maybe mothball him altogether at the start.

    I go from being 2 rows behind the dugout to one of the last 5 rows in 407. When they hand you an oxygen mask with your ticket, you know you're in trouble.
