    Hopefully tonight is a precursor to what Houston will unleash on the Bay Area over the next couple of weeks.

    LMFAO, Marwin's relay throw was basically rolling, but at least it was on target.

    Our "weak link" starter now has a 3.53 ERA.

    Lead still not large enough for the bullpen not to blow it.

    Why do we continue to waste a roster spot on Sipp? He throws BP

    His contract is guaranteed and a blowout innings eater is needed over the long season.

    The Astros have to weigh the decision as to whether or not the remaining $4,000,000 or so is worth that roster spot. He can always be DFA’d and they can eat the ramining amount. They have other pitchers to throw in blowouts.

    Didn't catch the game yesterday but happy to see the offensive explosion.

    Hopefully they keep it up... maybe less 16 - 2 wins and 1 run losses and more consistent 5-6 run games? Here is hoping.

    Sipp would have been out of the inning if Fisher didn't screw playing that line drive.
