    No reason that they don't win at least 2 of 3 and should sweep.

    50% chance 2/3
    30% chance 3/3
    15% chance 1/3
    5% chance 0/3

    These next 6 games will determine if this team is "ready for prime time"

    If Yordan is gonna DNP, I'd rather the game be postponed.

    Extra day for Hader and the entire staff to rest too.

    F*** the Twins

    Hope everything is still on for tonight. Heading up from the RGV to see my first game since the pre-Covid years. The school that I teach at won the 6A softball championship this year and they are being recognized tonight. [Side note: if you guys haven't come across the game, it was quite an ending. We were down 9-3 with one out in the last inning, and we wound up winning 11-9 with a walk off grand slam!]

    Because they didn't win the series against the twins, a sweep is much needed to make up ground.

    Rangers are right behind the astros and their offense is waking up.

    I blame last series on my ******* cubs fan friend who is in Vegas and decided he would finally bet on the Astros….then we lost back to back games.

    He’s sworn off betting the Astros and he’s a ****ing hater. We should be good for a sweep!

    Wrigley was prob the worst series of the season -- swept by a sub-500 team.

    Lawd have mercy.

    That series and the first two games @ Yankees marked the season-low 12 games under 500 for the Astros.

    Houston more pennants and championships since they both existed, so at least there's that.

    Don't wanna see Hader today. Dude needs a 3-day rest reset.

    Let Abreu and Pressly pitch the 8th and 9th if there's a close lead. One of the other bullpen guys needs a 2-inning appearance. Blanco prob needs to remain sub-90 pitches too.

    Power came back on this afternoon and a few minutes later I got hooked up with lower-level seats for tonight's game. Today was a good day.
