Playing with fire....the feeling I get when Oswalt is on the mound is the exact opposite feeling i have right now...
morgan needs to learn to adjust his mindset to different situations. with a man on 3rd and less than 2 outs, he shouldnt be up there just swinging as hard as he can. he should be trying to hit the ball to the right side of the field, or get under the ball a little bit and get the sac fly, ESPECIALLY with taveras at 3rd.
The only problem with the squeeze is can you ask a guy like Mo to bunt on a squeeze when he hasn't bunted in a game all year. A little risky/unfair to ask him to do that in my opinion.
I almost feel Garner is conceding this game...a lot like game 6 in St. Louis last season. I don't want to go for a split in Chicago....I want a sweep!
I guess were lucky Wandy got through all those innings to get to Qualls with only 1 run given up. Man.. I wish Taveras would have caught that ball.
One thing I think we should give the Astros credit for tonight is their grittiness. They just keep plucking away. That's a good sign for the rest of the series. And knowing how resilient they are and their ability to bounce back from tough losses (that is, IF they lose tonight ), I'll feel confident for game 2.
