    The doomsayers go ballistic after we -- gasp -- lose three in a row. Then they start printing playoff tickets after we win the next 2.

    I'm just psyched the Tuesday and Wednesday games are on national TV! :cool:

    8-16 TBA vs. TBA 1:05 on FSSW

    Should be a great pitcher's duel.

    Man Z is 12-5?! Crazy considering how his team has been playing.

    let's hope we can get a few runs off him and keep HIS bat silenced.

    Go Roy. Go Stros.

    Carlos kills the Astros. He might even flirt with a no hitter again.

    I know Carlos owns the Astros, but I hope the Stos can win one tonight. I'm taking my daughter (6 months) to her 1st Astros game. I should get a great view of the Cubs dugout (sec 112).

    I'm worried about TBA on Wednesday though, you never know what to expect from him.

    Have to at least win the series... win tonight and we make up half a game on Cincy then hopefully the Cards can sweep the Reds..that would best case scenario. Hell if we seep and the Cards sweep we'll be tied with for the WC lead before the weekend is up (assuming no other team takes the spot). But first things first, the team has to find a way to win tonight against Zambrano. I say they need to stay patient and work him into deep counts to try and get to the bullpen faster.
