    Take McCann out as well please. Don't waste him on Dayan Diaz, give him to McCullers.

    Has Diaz been a starter or reliever in Fresno?

    when I saw the Stros celebrating on the field in the rain a couple nights ago, I could hear my long-deceased grandmother's voice saying, 'Better get out of that rain or you're gonna catch a cold!' Maybe there was some real wisdom there...

    Vargas is a tough customer... and LHP.

    Against us earlier this season... 6 IP / 1 R / 1 ER / 1 BB / 6 K

    We play better on the road, so there's that

    I can see the Astros going for him ala Kazmir deal.

    He's also like 34..... could be one of those lucky years and he dies. Good rental tho.

    Strictly a reliever since coming to America. He made 8 starts with the Venezuelan Summer League Astros all the way back in 2008.

    Both. But think lately a reliever. 1.93 era in 4 games.

    Either way.............. he will be out by the 5th inning. Bats better be swinging, it's going to be a tough game vs Vargas.

    Well, we threw a no hitter once using something like 6 pitchers :)

    yep, and I believe that started as a game where our starter had to leave in the first inning with an injury.

    How ludicrous would it be having 14 pitchers on the 25-man?

    Strike-3 to Los wasn't a strike.

    I hope Keuchel and Giles are standing together tonight. Drink out of the same whiskey bottle. Let Giles grab some of that sickness.

    So we went from thinking about a sweep to hoping for a split in about 20 hours.

    Haha, who am I kidding? Go dayan!

    Feel way better with McCann behind the plate tonight. This dude definitely makes pitchers better. Total stud.

    Although his numbers are down against us this season, Cain scares me
