    I’ll be in 253. But will be with my kid so no drink for me. But I will take a win if you could arrange that.

    I want this so bad, it is hard to describe. After the disappointing ending to last year, this means more than ever. Please, please Jordan, SNAP out of it. You look like you are in a stupor when you go to the plate. Calm down and concentrate....hit ball! And Tucker, it is your time again. If Altuve can wake up, you can wake up! End this TONIGHT!!!! Valdez, let this be your best outing ever. Dazzle them, shut them out.

    I would've liked to have seen Vazquez in the DH position several games ago but I'll take it.

    Funny, but its a similar lineup to what we wanted post trade deadline.

    Will the real Trey Mancini please step in tonight.

    Baseball is a funny sport.

    Trey got a little taste of success with that defensive play at first.

    Sometimes that is all it takes in baseball to snap out of it.

    Sucks, but this is part of why they got Mancini. His luck has to turn around and he’s got the Crawford boxes at home.

    Ok, it’s going to be the feel good story continued. JV got his W in Game 5. Mancini gets his shot at some magic at the plate. Astros redemption tour finishes tonight!!

    I would feel so much better about this if Mancini's bat was at least average.

    Hopefully not Yuli’s last game as an Astro.

    Life always gives you a chance at redemption. The two trades that were made at the deadline are in the line up in the biggest game of their lives.

    Very reminiscent of the 88th Infantry during the Italia campaign in World War II

    Yuli may have already played his last game as an Astro.

    Today would be a great day for Mancini and Vazquez to excel.

    Maybe Mancini playing in the field will get his hitting going.
