    I remember that... and he brought it up to. I wonder if he referred back to his notes and asked himself "Did I b**** about this enough?... No."

    And he is entertaining, it's just that one aspect. And I did not realize that it was him.

    Castro didn't just get this spot because the Astros need a rep, although I'm sure a lot of people in the media will spin it that way unfortunately.

    His WAR is tied for second with salvador perez, you can make a legit arguement for Perez,Castro or Santana.

    Welp... I wonder who takes his spot or if this is just something until the ASB?

    Too bad I didn't have that effect on Ambriz :confused:

    Krauss has not only looked good this series, but he has worked his way deep into counts. That is something our team was really struggling with recently, and it is good to see a youngster thrive in that area. He is making himself bound to see a good pitch by doing so.

    Are we sure we can't count Carlos Beltran as our first AL all-star?
