    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).

    4-18 Jarred Cosart, RHP vs. Sonny Gray, RHP 9:05

    4-19 Brett Oberholtzer, LHP vs. Scott Kazmir, LHP 3:05 **MLBN**

    4-20 Brad Peacock, RHP vs. Jesse Chavez, RHP 3:05

    I am not predicting anymore this year. This team needs way too much help everywhere.

    The lack of offense has got to be getting to the starters.

    Damn! Cowart is one of the few Astros I look forward to seeing perform.

    Why even take Cosart out? It's 7-0... Astros aren't coming back.

    Hi there. I just wanted to jump in on this thread to see if anyone actually watches this team. I tried to do it for 1 inning, and it's nearly impossible.

    Looks like Cosart's peripheral numbers have finally caught up with him.

    I side with Lowrie there. It was the first inning. And Porter's a clown.

    Porter was mad because Lowrie tried to bunt for a hit after they already put up a 7-spot in the 1st.

    To get the game over with sooner? If Cosart was still out there, the game would probably still be in the 1st.

    Was looking forward to watching this game from 3rd inning on. Walked into the bar and we're already down 8-0.

    Damn


    Cosart has regressed. Entered this game with a 4.00 era.... it will rise.
