    All series talk goes in here. Non series talk goes somewhere else. No PBP, that can be found from other sources if you need it. All games are broadcast on AT&T Sports SW unless otherwise noted.

    Hopefully Yordan is back in the lineup. That was a good home stand...just what we needed, gotta get that road magic going again.

    WWL. Not wanting to sweep, I get a day off. You get a day off, everyone gets a day off in that third game.

    ^He is still upset.

    It's in Tampa so probably LLLL. One win would be good and two wins would be awesome. Have the Astros ever won a series in that crap hole stadium? They even lost the series where they were the home team vs. the Rangers.

    They've used an opener for Yarbrough his last 2 games...are we sure they're not doing that tonight?

    They are reporting that he has been named the starter even though he has been following openers. So who knows.

    If memory serves, the Astros have definitely won one maybe two series there but it's been pretty ugly for a while.

    The tables will turn this weekend

    Dusty refuses to have a full strength line up. And yes I know Yuli needs a day off

    Then what's the complaint? 8 of 9 OD starters minus the guy you admit needs a break (1st day off this year, iirc).

    Bregman don't need no bat flip. Start the jog, watch it, drop the bat, an run on...act like you've been there before.

    LOL, watching Kiermaier try to field Yordan's single 300 feet from the plate looked like a hot shot to the SS
