    Remember, no PBP in these threads and keep the chatter on topic (if it is about something other than this series, talk about it in another thread).

    WWW. This team has shown the ability to bounce back and revive hope when everyone gets down on them. Of course they just seem to turn around and take it all back right afterwards.

    This team needs Berkman back.

    brianmctaggart Oswalt hopes to be ready to start by Tuesday and take Russ Ortiz's spot in rotation...

    Good news I hope he doesn't hurt himself anymore but we really need him!

    If we lose 2 of 3 or get swept, is that it, we're done? Of course its not the end of the season but what does this series tell us, anything? Just curious on some of y'alls take.

    As far as an intellectually honest appraisal of their chances, they've been "done" since March.

    Glad they made it interesting.

    I'm still hoping for 81-81. Not that I'm content with that, but what *should* one expect from a roster like this? 90 wins? pshaw.

    Ok, the team can't play any worse than they did the past couple of days.

    And Bourn starts this one off very well.

    The double plays are just getting comical, at this point. This week has to be some kind of record.
