    Suddenly, no one wants Luke Gregerson out of the closer role.

    If Houstunna had shown up it would have been an even 39,000.

    Astros win this series winning on HRs the past couple of games. Offense doing just enough along with the elite pitching they are getting. Good to win this tough series.

    We have a chance to lead all of MLB in HR, without having a single 30 HR hitter.

    Pitching continues to dominate. Offense still struggling, but you don't need many hits when you hit em out of the park. Won the series, time to get greedy.

    Gomez 0-3 tonight, .183 avg. How much longer does Hinch leave him in the 2 hole?

    Interesting. If I am not mistaken this means that he won't be eligible for the postseason roster.

    Preston being sent down is kind of disappointing but he hasn't been hitting as well lately and he doesn't help defensively. Marisnick with his defense alone has been helping the team more lately. Doesn't hurt that Marisnick has started hitting a little more either.

    So Tucker can't go to the post season but Carter would?
