    All series talk goes in here. Non series talk goes somewhere else. No PVP that can be found from other sources if you need it. All games are broadcast on Root Sports unless otherwise noted.



    5-9 Corey Kluber, RHP (2-3, 3.35) vs. Mike Fiers, RHP (2-1, 5.35) 7:10

    5-10 Trevor Bauer, RHP (2-0, 5.14) vs. Chris Devenski, RHP (1-0, 1.46) 7:10

    5-11 Danny Salazar, RHP (3-2, 1.91) vs. Doug Fister, RHP (3-3, 4.54) 1:10 MLBN (out of market)

    I haven't made a prediction yet this year, so I'll go ahead and go out on a limb and say we sweep.

    Fiers pitches well in an effort to save his rotation spot, Stros win 3-2.

    Stros finally support Devenski with the bats, Stros win 7-4.

    Fister and Salazar both get knocked around, Stros pull it out 8-7.

    Astros need to get rolling.

    The Mariners series was underwhelming.

    Although wouldn't be surprised if either team swept this series. Cautiously optimistic the Stros can sweep them. We'll see.

    White and Valbuena are showing signs of life in the past three games so he probably went with Valbuena for the lefty vs righty matchup. I would like to see White get more starts though if he keeps hitting

    How's the crowd at these early games? I'm actually off on Wed. Get a $5 seat and sit in front row? ;)

    This happens regularly. Hinch is one of the few managers who will sit a player with consecutive multi-hit games, but continually play a guy if he is hitless in 7 straight. As soon as said player has two good games in a row you can count on him sitting even though he is finally out of the slump and on a hot streak.

    Its not terrible... season ticket base largely makes up the lower level, and there are decent walkup sales from the downtown businesses (yes, there are actually people that habitate Downtown Houston during the week... despite the street's ghost-like appearance).
