    First playoff game and after not playing for 2 weeks.

    It was a recipe for disaster.

    I mean it's his first start in 2 weeks, and he doesn't get to be in the field and stay warm. Plus first playoff game for a rookie.

    I wouldn't get that cute. Maybe go with Stanek.

    My worry with Montero is not that he blows an 8-run lead, but that he lets them score a few and build some momentum going into tomorrow.

    It's funny how much more 'at home' we look when we're playing away from Minute Maid

    Post season is different, if we can get post season Montero to wake up it just makes The Stros stronger..... We aren't even at full power yet...

    Two things.

    First, who was the idiot who was coming on here earlier saying that the crowd yelling and being loud would intimidate this team?? I mean have you not been paying attention?? This team THRIVES in this atmosphere.

    Secondly. Anyone coming on here spewing how bad of a signing Abreu was needs to STFU!!! He was fantastic in Sept and more importantly he's producing when it counts the most. The postseason!!
