    Probably should emphasize that my buddy was one of those guys that would have bet we would win 90+ games in March and now maybe 60. Just wishy washy after a week of play.

    My point is that 3 innings doesn't dictate a game and that people assume a few bad at bats mean a team can't perform.


    And damn... Carter almost made this game closer.

    Kevin can chat... Good lord. His chat game is almost as strong as his soul patch game.

    sounded like he was just reciting crap that he's probably said a thousand times before. i don't think he even knew he was talking. turned on autopilot.

    Ya think maybe we could have filled more seats if they would have promoted 'come watch Costner watch the Stros'?

    Probably relevant if you heard all of that interview.

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>The lustful look in Costner's eyes when he says &quot;grown men&quot; is downright disturbing</p>&mdash; Crognard T Barbarian (@NimsMcGarnagle) <a href="https://twitter.com/NimsMcGarnagle/status/587791235311505408">April 14, 2015</a></blockquote>

    If Asher pitches a few tonight, does that mean Dedundo pitches tomorrow possibly? A Peacock switcharoo with Asher after tonight?

    Valbuena has had a decent past few games. Nice to see him string some good ABs together after that spring.

    You actually thought his attendance was announced and everyone knew of it in advance.

    this is interesting...its not a bad idea, put the kid in a 'no pressure' situation and let him get some innings in, build his confidence. Also, he gives the bullpen a rest--Hinch wants to save the bullpen. Not sure about who pitches tomorrow though .

    I think someone started the wave, in this case the ripple.
