    the bullpen needs a break. Wandy and Lidge should be sent to the moon.

    Because if you overuse your bullpen, you end up with situations like yesterday where Wheeler and Qualls both need to rest, and Lidge can end up being one of your only options to pitch the ninth.

    I agree. Wandy has done great this season, but he's gotta take one for the team and keep pitching tonight. Then let Lidge get some more work.

    The game isn't exactly over, especially with this team's recent late inning success. I'd much rather put Borkowski or someone like that out for a few innings. He's fresh (only 4 innings this season) and fairly good.

    Astros continue to score in the late innings. 6-4 game now.

    Turnbow is blatantly licking his fingers between pitches. He should be tossed or at least warned.

    Note to Astros: Dump Lidge like the Rangers dumped Cordero.

    Frustrating finish... after working the count to 3-1, Lee goes way out of the zone on ball 4 to tap out to third and end the game. If he takes that pitch, all Ensberg needs is a single and this game is tied.

    Dude didn't even pitch tonight. Can we at least cut him some slack when he doesn't play?

    Was he on the mound when he was doing it?
