    Mike Fiers pitching like a man that want to stay in the rotation, good to see.

    Michael Feliz continues to dominate in relatively low leverage situation.

    And this lineup is crazy deep. When the top 5 hitters don't score, that is a game most teams lose, we scored 7.

    It honestly doesn't seem like we're going to lose again for a while. We might seriously win 17 or 18 in a row before a surprising loss. This team has no weaknesses, none.

    Astros money train keeps on rolling. Moneyline, runline, over and series bets just keep on cashing!!! This is truly an incredible run, and on the road too!

    They're gonna lose at some point, but it's nice to say that it's been a while.

    Run line is where it's at, already seen too many -150 to -170 for us, on the road. Offense too good, pitching just as dominant, hit those run lines and don't look back.

    I know we'll lose another game sooner or later, hell we might go through a prolonged rough stretch where we lose a few in a row or give away a couple of series but hot damn.... this is just amazing. This is a level of domination I'm not sure any houston team has sustained in recent memory. 22 game win streak maybe.

    We can only hope. Regardless, this team will be around for a LONG time (maybe 10+ years) if we can lock-up Altuve, Correa, Keuchel.

    Us Astros fans deserve this.

    Probably blasphemous to say on this site, but having watched all of those games, the win streak seemed like fool's gold. I think a decent Cavs and Lakers teams were the only obstacles during that stretch. Celtics exposed us and then obviously the playoffs embarrassment. These Astros are wiping the floor with their opponents, taking the team's mothers out for dinner, and then never calling them again.

    has the astros offense made the closer role obsolete?
    After fiers received the red tape, he's been pitching like an ace.
    Will we go undefeated the rest of the way?
    Stay tuned.

    Yuli and " McCann? Yes he did!*" came through.

    * that was such a cheesy line by blum after McCann's homer that it made me laugh.

    Plus, I would be shocked if Gurriel has actually laid down a bunt the past 8+ years
