    As always, no PBP in the thread. If you need that try one of the game cast sites. Keep discussion to this series. If it is not about this series it goes somewhere else.


    5-21 Matt Garza, RHP vs. Bud Norris, RHP 7:05 on FSH

    5-22 Travis Wood, LHP vs. J.A. Happ, LHP 7:05 on FSH

    5-23 Jeff Samardzija, RHP vs. Wandy Rodriguez, LHP 7:05 on FSH

    We're tanking right now. I expect the Astros to sweep the Cubs.

    Good luck.

    Even though Jordan is hurt, Altuve is not a leadoff hitter.

    I guess the role falls to him by default when Schafer is hurt or getting a day off.

    CJ for ASG?

    Probably not, but he is 2nd among NL 3B in average, 3rd in slugging. David Wright will be the starter, between his monster season so far and playing in NY.

    I know it takes more than the average fan to enjoy what the Astros are doing. but this crowd is an embarrassment.

    That is because at least half the city of Houston decided to become Rangers fans.

    Astros shot up quite a bit in attendance b/c of the Ranger Series

    http://espn.go.com/mlb/attendance

    I don't see them getting much higher. I bet the average person in town can't name 1 current Astro until that changes attendance will be bad.
