    The team is just taking care of business. Fun to watch as a fan.

    Technically a save situation for Giles. Maybe we get good Ken today.

    I guess it happens more when you constantly have guys on base.

    Damn what a snag but at least it brought in the run. Nice late inning come back. Let’s get Giles to Close this out.

    Edit: or Rondon haha

    No doubt. Plus today, like 2017, Stros haven't been striking out.

    Agreed but mainly because of the pitching — what is scary is the offense is just starting to put it together ... I feel like the offense hasn’t quite clicked yet like last years and THAT will be awesome to see + the pitching

    I mean, yeah... an extra half year of Verlander and a full year of Cole. Plus contract year Sipp.

    Yankees lose. Sox up 5-0 against the Mariners.

    Astros sweep its first Road Trip of 8+ games.

    Stros had double digit hits in every game this roady except two -- those two, 9 hits.

    When they are both going the Astros are unbeatable.

    Rondon is going to also be huge for them.

    Question: Do I go ahead and pull the trigger on Gallery Furniture's World Series prop bet promotion? There's not a team in MLB that I don't think the Astros crush in a series, if/when we make the WS, I see it an easy sweep.

    if you need you new furniture might as well go for it. Too bad superior waterbeds is no longer around. I always wanted a water bed. I bet AJ hinch owned a waterbed.
