    this. everyone treats him like he is already a hall of famer. Yes he has been bad, but the rushes to judgment on him are unfair. He has certainly earned enough credibility through his previous work to avoid being moved down in the lineup!

    Gotcha. I thought that at first but Brown made it seem otherwise. Good call DP.

    Heh, **** the Rangers.

    That was fun. Marwin has moved up into the pantheon of coolness, alongside Spiers, Berry, Walling, Garner, Candaele, etc...

    Yeah and technically Gomez "officially" struck out when he stepped out of the box.

    Good to see Marwin and Springer coming around with the bats! Both were barely hitting their weights a week ago. This lineup is downright salty.

    Man its gonna be a fun summer!

    we still need to add another SP for us to be world series contenders IMO. If we added archer or quintana then wed be def favorites.

    Astros May ballpark pass is coming in clutch so far. I went to last nights game and tonight's game...awesome atmosphere.

    Best part were rangers fans trying to mock the Ric Flair "WOOOO's".....They were very quiet after the 8th inning.

    Adding a guy like that sure wouldn't hurt.

    Saw a stat that the Astros lead the league in RISP and that was before the Marwinning! Also leading the league in WHIP according to ESPN. So nice to be solid across the board with no glaring weaknesses and lots of talent in the minors still to come.

    Go Stros!

    Just got back from the game. I can't believe they hit a granny from the Rangers and won by one run. Is this real life? WOOOOOO!

    Tonight is a game where DPs weren't a factor.

    With all our basrrunners, there was opportunity.

    Good job. Great season.
