    You can never expect to a sweep an MLB team...but the White Sox are about as close as you will ever see to a team you absolutely should sweep.

    The only competition is Colorado.

    I hope this is a dominant "get healthy" type of series.

    I just worry about this team's tendency to play down to the competition.

    Good spot for Framber to tighten up his game.

    I think the Astros are going to treat this as a must-win, playoff-type series. In an early season tight division race, you don’t lose a series against a historically awful team when you’re 1-2-3 SP are lined up to go.

    WWL - I have no idea what LMJ will look like and they could be down early. I hope I will be wrong and positively surprised.

    You have framber and hunter going. Two of your best. Not only that it's against one of the weakest team in the major.

    If you can't take 2 out of 3, idk what to say.

    But then we've seen what the Astros are incapable of when facing against weaker competition.

    Impossible because the game after scoring 11 would be a 0.
