    Screw this. Do NOT trade Berkman!

    Lance Berkman should remain an Astro until he retires.

    If that's reliable, we'll have a pretty good indication in 30-45 minutes when the 'Stros clubhouse opens. Lance is one of the most open athletes I've ever met with the media... if he knows something, everyone will have a good idea. Assuming he's there of course (and if he's not, that would also say something).

    hmmm....pence not in lineup tonight. sure seems unnecessary to worry about matchups tonight and they are coming off an off day.

    looking too deep?

    Berkman vs. Oswalt in the World Series... that'd be crazy.

    Basically, Pence said "Damn, I'm not in the lineup".

    Some other guy (Stephen Hingdon) commented on that and said "probably means you're getting traded"

    And some 3rd guy (AstrosCounty) responded to that saying "brutal".

    It's not officially posted until ~1 hour before the first pitch, but Alyson Footer often puts a picture of it on her Twitter well prior (it could still change between then and the first pitch, though).

    in the dugout at MMP. :grin:

    footer or mctaggart will usually tweet it, but that was from pence's twitter saying he isn't in the lineup tonight.

    also, mlb.com usually has it a couple hours before game.

    Don't know. She hasn't posted it. We only know about Pence because he tweeted that he wasn't in it.
