    Man only 3 games at home. It's like "road trip" for the team.

    I hope we play like the far superior team we are. I fear we won't.

    I predict a five run bottom of the first.

    I’ve noticed over the years, we usually follow long winning streaks with a poor stretch of play. Saw some of it during the Detroit series.

    No, we didn’t play particularly well at Detroit, but the first loss was a 7 inning game and the second was an extra inning man on second. And we know both of those scenarios heavily favor the home team.

    If you didn't wouldn't they be *longer* winning streaks?

    Astros need to get the offense rolling again. Baltimore is one of the best chances.

    Is that glass half-full or half-empty?

    Half full for sure.

    Tucker is a natural.
