    Please limit talk in this thread to this series. Other topics should be discussed in the appropriate threads. Play-by-play is not allowed. If you need that, there are other places to find it. Political discussions belong in the D&D forum not in here. All games are broadcast on Space City Network unless otherwise noted.

    Astros have a chance over the rest of this month to take control of the division. They should probably be favored in every series (depending on how some of the SP matchups play out).

    There's no way the astros are favored against the Padres. I would love to be wrong of course.

    First month of the season feels like we never left the NL.

    As long as we don't have to see the St. Louis version of Pujols ever again.

    The rivalry goes way back. Before the Colt 45s, Houston was a St Louis farm club. I'm not sure if they were even rated at the time.

    Isn’t it a spacious outfield in St. Louis?

    We should play Yordan in LF at home and in the smaller parks.

    love how Joe sits Chas for all those games, even against a LHP or 2. Then starts him vs a RHP. Why wouldn't you help your player succeed?

    Brendan Rodgers is still sore? I hope he didn't break his hip or something.

    I would really like to see Chas get an extra base hit today.

    I like Yordan in LF and Altuve DH when Framber starts

    Just because he may get more grounders? He may not though, and it’s a big outfield.
    Not a good enough reason to play him in LF in SL but not at home.
