    Well great 3-0 now with Delgado on second. Beating good teams has been a major problem for this team.

    They just don't have it......If I had to bet, tonight looks like a shutout.

    Garner is killing me with his stupid lineups.



    As for Quintero, he might as well bat from the On Deck circle.

    Ugh!! Not the right handers... :confused:

    Would you please, please, please... put the players in that can actually hit: Luke Scott and Mike Lamb. I don't care if they're lefties.

    You would have thought from last night that Phil could see the add-ins couldn't produce, except for Burke. :mad:

    Add him to my list ....FIVE guys under .245......55% of your offensive firepower is BELOW an acceptable major league hitting average.

    How can we expect this team to win, when Lamb & Scott - both PLUS hitters this year, sit and watch?

    ANOTHER crap throw by Everett, but dug out by Berkman.

    For a defensive wizard, he seems to make a lot of errant throws that have to be dug out by our 1st baseman.

    Also Glavine is a CHANGE UP pitcher....the left handers take away the Change up advantage.

    Garner is too much of a hunch guy....I think Dierker was the best manager the Astros have ever had.

    Dierker did have better teams. Any of those Dierker teams would blow right through the national league this year.

    But yes, I'm not a fan of some of Phil's moves.

    Burke is clearly OVERMATCHED here, he won't be able to get a hit at all....probably GIDP.

    No way he hits a Gapper to Right center.
