    Please keep this to talk about the series. As usual no Play-by-Play, or general Astros talk. If you need play by play see one of the many other sites that have game casts.


    5-19 Greg Smith, LHP (1-2, 6.35) vs. Felipe Paulino, RHP (0-6, 5.72) 7:05 on FSH

    5-20 Ubaldo Jimenez, RHP (7-1, 1.12) vs. Roy Oswalt, RHP (2-5, 2.62) 7:05 on FSH

    Drayton predicts that we'll sweep this series and turn our season around in the process. He also says that we're gonna trade Lyles, Mier and other considerations for Alfonso Soriano so we can make our annual second half playoff push.

    Fixed. They actually get excited and celebrate the performance since they haven't seen good baseball in so long.

    I think either Bourn or Berkman will draw a walk. Just a feeling. Either Kaz Matsui or Carlos will follow with a GIDP, so he will still face the minimum.

    :grin:

    With the randomness of baseball, watch our league-worst offense score 4 or 5 runs off him, leaving everybody (including Ubaldo) scratching their heads.

    I they don't, Roy is going to start begging for all the ND's he was getting last year.

    This one is going to be brutal. Roy Oswalt pitches another great game and the hitters get shut out again. Would love to hear Oswalt's comments after this one.

    I'm thinking of subscribing to MiLB.tv

    $29.95 for the season, and you get 1200 minor league games streamed live. Current series include Greenville Drive @ Lexington Legends. Would be interesting.

    I think I saw a blurb today that said the Astros are 1-18 in Paulino's last 19 appearances (15 starts). Hard to be optimistic when he's on the mound.
