    - Spaghetti still serving hot
    - largest division lead of the season (5.5 games)
    - Gamel has an excellent debut (2-3, 2 RBIs, run, walk)

    Let's hope not, lest we be minor league.

    Started awful, finished great. This Spaghetti kid is looking more and more like the real deal. I wasn't expecting much from Gamel, but he came thru big time. Can he keep it up? Dubon looks completely lost at the plate.

    Servaisless Mariners 5 1/2 games back.

    Astros back within 4 of the bye week vs Cleveland (play them the last weekend). Guardians play the Rangers next. Just pinch your nose really hard.

    Unfortunately, Yordan might too.

    He needs to un-mindf**k himself at MMP.

    Great win. For once, I didn't want to strangle the entire team.

    Yep, the only game Ferguson messed up was when he kept shaking off Diaz.

    May 8
    4.92 Team ERA
    12-24 record
    Arrighetti is 0-4 8.44 ERA, pitching staff is in shambles

    Since then
    3.34 ERA (best in baseball, no one is better than 3.65)
    57-34 (best in baseball)

    Player of the game.

    Hopefully he can become a league avg OF. If so this offense will take off if Espada continues to use the lineup he used tonight.

    Yeah, but they have the worst minor league system im MLB.

    And to think teams wont trade with Dana because they dont like the Stros prospects.

    Why? Anytime Caratini plays C and Yordan plays LF they score runs. What Gamel and Whitcomb gave them was a bonus. If they can be league avg players then this team has as good a chance to win a championship as anybody.
