    I think they're going to need a position player to pitch.

    Unless we put together a huge rally, it's highly likely a position player gets the 8th.

    anyone, listening to the radio broadcast, anyone? bueller? The guys are leaving it open that it could have been an illness or something else for dallas.

    Nice recovery by Greg. Hopefully that sparks him to find his old form.

    Well, he's always sick, but not in the good way tonight.

    E6 in the 8th?? I like the omen, even if it's for later.

    Bring it on back

    also, way to keep us in it LukeGreg. 2 innings, more than typical, and he delivered

    A little serendipitous with Reddick getting some ribeyes on an error with 2 outs. Hmmm....

    This team just refuses to acknowledge the phrase "take the L"

    I really hope Springer didn't just hurt himself. He didn't pop up on that awkward slide and then slammed his helmet down.

    Do we really need a set closer? Why not close by committee? No pressure on Giles as " The Closer" and you just use who you think is best for that particular game.

    Interesting to see Giles out there instead of Harris. If the Astros possibly make it a save opportunity, wonder if Giles goes back out there or Harris gets the opportunity to save.

    Think that's the best route for this team currently.
