All series talk goes in here. DO NOT GIVE PLAY-BY-PLAY! If you need PBP try Yahoo, ESPN, or Sportsline. 9-11 Andy Pettitte, LHP (13-13, 4.34) vs. Chris Carpenter, RHP (13-6, 2.97) 7:10 on FSSW 9-12 TBA (Astros.com has Sampson listed; then says Borkowski in the game preview) vs. Jeff Weaver, RHP (6-14, 5.85) 7:10 on FSSW 9-13 Roy Oswalt, RHP (12-8, 3.15) vs. Jason Marquis, RHP (14-14, 5.66) 1:10 on FSSW
Cuck the Fards...WLW...Thi is a make or break series...I say we bounce back from yesterday in a big way... ok, why am I first to post here... go stros...
You got a link for that? From what I heard they were waiting until he saw Doctors today. I hadn't seen anything about that yet.
A sweep would be sooooooo sweet. Astro fans would go absolutely wild, the whole city would be abuzz. It could happen.
Pettitte will miss tonight's start due to a sprained ankle! Buchholz tonight - I hope it's "good" Buchholz.
Unreal. Everytime this team gets any kind of break, something like this happens. Taylor Buchholz against Chris Carpenter. Great. By the way, what's the deal with Andy getting freak injuries before his starts in St. Louis? If you guys remember, he was hit by a line drive in batting practice before his game 1 start of the NLCS last year... it was his worst start of the postseason. EDIT: This might not be as bad as it seems. It's been reported on AstrosDaily that Pettitte will simply be bumped until tomorrow. As long as we have Roy and Andy both starting games in this series, we'll have our chances.
Yeah, I've was thinking 2 of 3 anyway and now that Pettitte's starting against Weaver instead of Carpenter - maybe they'll have a better chance at winning the series. Hope Pettitte is good to go tomorrow - yeah I thought of game 1 of the NLCS too - what the hell Pettitte?!
