    Kinda crazy.. the Astros only series winners this season (CLE, MIN, CHI, DET) ALL share ONE major commonality...


    think first.....

    Great Lakes
    _____

    A win tomorrow would be extra gravy and is possible considering we've handled some very good starters this season.

    That said, if we lose, a 3-4 road trip is acceptable at this point in time.

    Keuchel must be thinking: how come I can't get run support like this when I'm pitching?

    "All teams from the AL Central" would have been a far less obscure and more relevant commonality

    The way Keuchel has been pitching, 5 runs is still not enough.

    He gets to play while appealing his suspension.

    Very true, on a local level.

    On a life-experience, broader level, Great Lakes comes to mind first... it goes beyond sports.

    Damn, if we didnt blow two games in the 9th against Boston...

    Oh well, we're playing better baseball, it's too bad that we dug ourselves such a big hole.

    Tomorrow's game is just a bonus if we can pull it out, but Im not sweating it. We won the series and that's all I wanted.

    The Texas series is going to be huge.

    None are great sports cities because they don't have NASCAR

    We're only 6 games out. Pretty sure the Rangers made that up on Houston in about 2 weeks last Fall...

    Yeah, nobody should be concerned about the standings and what everybody else is doing right now... as long as this team continues to get good starting pitching, gets the bullpen in line, and gets ANYTHING from guys other than the 1-3 in the lineup, they're going to win some games and ultimately get back in this thing.

    During an eagar attempt to be difficult, Turd didn't realize both CHI and DET have racetracks. :eek:

    One day, you're gonna learn to play nice with your daddy.

    The 5 seconds it took to type that exhaused the amount of knowledge and give-a-**** I have for NASCAR. Sorry.

    It does make sense though, there's a lot of bored whiskey-tangos in the upper midwest.

    NTTAWWT, but that's not how I roll. Sorry again.
