Think the Astros have used up any mojo they had...nothing is breaking right for them since the went on this road trip. If tossing your helmet on the field doesn't automatically result in ejection like in football, then that ump just made two bad decisions. And now Wandy is injured. Oh well.
WOW Now Wandy goes down??? Holy #$#@...Can this get any worse??? I guess Bazardo may get his shot after all!
Nothing from Alyson or Tags on Wandy but if he is out for any length of time with Roy probably going on the DL its time to bring up Bazardo and give him and Norris spot in the rotation to get ready for 2010!
Q is a hitting machine tonight... Jason Michaels before his double play ball was batting Avg HR RBI Runs .198 1 7 8 Again was is he on the team ahead of Abercombrie or even Bogasevic?
It is becoming apparent in these last two series (if it wasn't already) that we are just not as good as the Cardinals and Cubs. Both of those teams are much better than their records indicate, and I think they will both have big second halves.
Good night on the Astros 2009 season. Hopefully some of these guys will pass through waivers so they can still be traded before Aug 31. Not too sure they'll bring up Bazardo next. I'd bet on Paulino coming back first or even Polin Trinidad getting a shot. His 4.81 era is mostly due to one horrendous outing. Otherwise, he's been pretty damn good since getting called up from AA.
I heard JD and Brown say something about Bazardo being out of options and not on the 40-man roster. What does that mean as far as what we can do with him?
If he comes up he can't go back down without passing through wavers. So you want to be sure he is going to stay up if he comes up.
