    Bagwell has tossed the bat down in disgust more times in 1/2 of a year than he has his entire career.

    Luckily, I don't often listen to the radio. I do, however, much prefer Hamilton to Worrell.

    It's nothing new for me this season; I've never been able to stand him.

    Bagwell has an attitude problem, Mister. Garner needs to fine him every time he says a curse word and slams the bat down like that. Bags needs to start gently tossing the bat in those situations and he needs to say a "happy" word or words on his way back to the dugout like: "I'll get them next time", "I almost got that one", or "I'll hit it out next at bat". It's all mental. Shoulder smoulder.

    I swear... Klesko is right behind Jim Edmonds as the all-time greatest Minute Maid Park hitter.

    He can be struggling throughout the season... but when he comes to Houston, he always turns it on.

    Maybe he can be our next first-baseman.

    Bill Worrell - "The Astros cannot win the wild card unless they put some wins together" Good call Bill

    Milo is the worst I have ever heard. Trying to get a score out of him is like trying to pull teeth. He mispronounces names often, and never finishes the play by play. He always leave you guessing what just happened.

    At least Bill talks coherently, Milo speaks a foreign language to me.

    Worrell's asinine comments, such as the one Whag mentioned, annoy me more than Milo's shortcomings. Again, granted, I watch the game more often on tv than I listen to it on the radio. I've turned off the tv many times though due solely to Worrell.

    All I can say is, try turning off your tv and turn on the radio to listen to the Astros games. A few years back, before I had DirecTv and was able to WATCH Astros games, all I had was internet radio broadcasts of the games. Milo is clueless when it comes to describing what is going on. He should have retired 20 years ago.

    Turn off that TV and turn on the radio, I think you will agree.

    All this biyatching about the broadcasters. Bill's been around forever as has Milo. Replacing them won't help the team win any more. It just doesn't matter unless we win. ;)

    It just doesn't matter!

    It matters to me that people paid to make the game more enjoyable actually ruin it for me.

    If there ever was a time for Jeff Bagwell to prove he still has something left; this is it.

    I was about to say the same thing.

    Im rooting hard for him to come through here. It is Scott Linebrink after all. :)

    No pain, Jeff. No pain.

    You got the EYE OF THE TIGER.

    THERE IS NO TOMORROW!

    1-2 . 1-2 now. Stick it.

    Edit: Oh well...another pop-up by Bags. :(

    They're now talking about Bagwell the same way they were talking about Olajuwon in his twilight.

    "He used to..."

    "I remember back when..."

    "Maybe he can turn back the clock..."

    Its sad.

    Bases loaded with 0 outs. Stros will screw it up. Count on it.
