    Once it was a ruled a foul tip it couldn't be challenged. That rule needs an amendment to allow a challenge on a possible HBP.

    I've watched THE SHOT about 750 times. It keeps me from being distracted this last couple of days.

    Yeah, he gets that crazy, almost screwball-movement on his sinker when he's going right. He can throw it up/down/in/out, groundball machine

    It never fails. The announcers jinx the **** out of the Astros.

    "Murphy has struggled against Valdez."

    *Murphy walks*

    I think they are insanely deep thou even if that depth is mostly young guys... A big game could come from Meyers/Siri/McCormick at any given time.... Also maybe its absolutely no deal at all but these guys play year round hearing boos and absolutely getting hated on ever single inning in away games.... Maybe this will help the team in the playoffs mentally, they have been battling all year in high pressure situations...
