    I'm thinking sweep !!

    Cleveland is down now.

    3 starting position players injured and we are missing their 2 best starting pitchers.

    Who knows, we could sweep or get swept.

    Most likely something in between. I will take a series win.

    And those 3 position players happen to be their best bats. No excuses for the Stros this weekend!

    Imai needs to figure out how to get out of the 1st with minimal damage

    We will be hard pressed to win today with Imai starting (even though we are 5-4 in his starts).

    We are past the point of winning the series, we need to get some sweeps under our belt and go on a Vegas heater. If we don't, we will be sellers at the break, and I am not ready for that.

    It depends on which Imai shows up. Good Imai could throw another no hitter. Bad Imai could give up 4 runs in the first inning.

    A sweep offsets losing series like Pittsburgh and Minnesota.

    Astros have PLENTY of offsetting to do.

    Also, just looked it up, the current Stros have hit Bibee pretty well.

    Yordan (shocking, I know) is 4-6 with a 2B and bomb, Walker's 3-8 with the same...Yainer's 3-7, Jake's 3-3

    Yainer is catching Imai for the first time in a regular season game should be interesting

    Damn site wouldn't let me reset my password so been missing, not because we've been trash, honestly! Finally managed to guess it eventually. Still closely following our "fortunes" but was wondering if any of you's were in the slightest bit bothered about the football, I mean soccer, World Cup? Have you noticed your circle of friends talking about it at all....or not really? Just wondered.

    I’m ready to show Imai some tough love. You’ve burned up the goodwill dude, it’s time to perform. Otherwise consent to getting optioned and work it out in Sugar Land. But he has to stop hurting the team.
