    Talk about the series here. Please no PBP in this thread. Unless otherwise noted all games are on CSN-H (for about 40% I guess).

    6-14 Chris Sale, LHP vs. Erik Bedard, LHP 7:10

    6-15 John Danks, LHP vs. Lucas Harrell, RHP 6:15

    6-16 Hector Santiago, LHP vs. Dallas Keuchel, LHP 1:10

    6-17 Jose Quintana, LHP vs. Bud Norris, RHP 7:10

    Worst pitching in the league against one of the league's worst offenses.

    Something's gotta give....

    Hopefully that late burst in game three against the Mariners holds over. Looks like the key to getting a let up on Sale is the long ball. In starts where he does not give up a homerun, Sale has only allowed more than one ER once. Paging Chris Carter...

    Ive got a quick question....The cheapest tickets I can find to tonights game are $14.50 in the section that used to be $7 and even $5 back in the day. (Stupid Dynamic Pricing). I don't want to spend more than $20 on a ticket because lets face it, its the Astros. I'd rather use the extra $ on beer cause I'll prolly need several with the way they play. MY QUESTION: Has the policy on moving down to empty lower bowl seats changed since Crane took over? I know Drayton was strict about it, but with the stadium 3/4ths empty it seems like it'd be alot easier. I'm planning on getting tipsy enough to not care and attempt anyways.


    GO ASTROS!!

    Also, if you get there early, just sit in a slightly less populated area during warm ups, and no one will ask you to move unless you're in their seat (rarity). Did this in the Crawford Boxes a few weeks ago and even got up for drinks. No one ever asked to see tickets.

    Went this year and most aisles didn't have any ticket checkers, even with 5 minutes until first pitch.

    When I was there. The ticket guys came and checked our tickets in the Crawford Boxes after BP. Then were there in the 1st inning when I got up and came back, and then never saw them again, anywhere.

    Alexei Ramirez and his horrid defense would fit very well on this team.

    Yes, because what we really need is to dump our leading run producer. Cut Carter, cut him now!

    Man i really wanted Sale in 2010.

    But, but... we need to draft players with upside, college players must not have that. :rolleyes:

    DDJr could still wind up being a good player, but I don't see him ever having the impact Sale does, he looks like a stud.
