    Talk about the series here. Please no PBP in this thread. Unless otherwise noted all games are on CSN-H (for about 40% I guess).


    6-10 Brandon McCarthy, RHP vs. Dallas Keuchel, LHP 7:10

    6-11 Wade Miley, LHP vs. Scott Feldman, RHP 7:10

    The Astros playing like this could be a sign of the apocalypse! :)

    It could be apocalypse for the league if the Astros succeed given other clubs will adopt the model.

    Keuchel on the bump expecting a W. Hopefully Springer is good to go.

    This is why Altuve's not in the lineup:

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Altuve says he tweaked left oblique swinging bat Tuesday. He wants to play, saying &quot;I'm going to try to change it.&quot; Not sure he was joking.</p>&mdash; Brian McTaggart (@brianmctaggart) <a href="https://twitter.com/brianmctaggart/statuses/476823796729397248">June 11, 2014</a></blockquote>

    Damn, was desperate for the full lineup given these last couple games and the fact that I'm going to be at ballpark. Even Pressley in place of Grossman is somewhat of a drop off for me. Oh well, most important thing is that Springer is back and Altuve remains healthy.

    I have faith in Dallas!

    We are only 6 games out of the wild card! I know we have little to no shot to make it but if we can stay this close to the race the rest of the season i would call this season a huge success!

    Is there any team as consistently bad at base running as the Astros?

    No... its all because Bo Porter has them all thinking they're "invisible".

    Even had the throw gone home, the expectation should have been it would have been cutoff and he still would have been thrown out at 3rd.
