    As always, no PBP in the thread. If you need that try one of the game cast sites. Keep discussion to this series. If it is not about this series it goes somewhere else. Hopefully we don't have to watch the abomination that is the Marlins homerun, seizure inducing celebration extravaganza.

    4-13 Lucas Harrell, RHP vs. Ricky Nolasco, RHP 6:10 on FS-H, MLBN, DirecTV-678, Dish441, DishHD-9581

    4-14 Bud Norris, RHP vs. Carlos Zambrano, RHP 6:10 on FS-H, DishHD-9579, Dish443, DirecTV-678

    4-15 J.A. Happ, LHP vs. Anibal Sanchez, RHP 12:10 on FS-H, Dish440, DishHD-9575, DirecTV-678

    I hate Carlos Zambrano's guts. If they only win 1 game, they better destroy him. I hope he melts down and destroys the Marlins dugout.

    As long as the free extra innings preview is going the Astros can do it. Sadly the free preview is up soon

    Get to see the new ballpark for the first time. From What I've seen, it is pretty bright.

    Same here. I can live with losses in the 1st and 3rd game. Just beat the living s*** out of Fat Z.

    hmmm interesting that Lowrie gets bumped all the way up to the #2. Honestly I'd rather have Altuve batting 5th instead of 8th. Bogey has just been a black hole this year.

    Certainly with the way Altuve has been drawing walks, and getting singles, he should be at the top of the order. I'd probably move Altuve up to 2, and everyone below down a spot.

    I don't see Lowrie as a #3 hitter. It will be a test for Altuve because he's going to see even fewer pitches than he was already. If he maintains his patience hitting in front of the pitcher, he can cause some trouble for the opposition.

    I like Lowrie in the 3 spot more than I like Altuve in the 8 spot.

    Lowrie does have some pop though. Potentially 20HR power.

    Marlins made sure Jose Altuve had a place to sit
