    I realize we dont really have a roster spot for him, but i'd love to have brandon barnes back on the squad.

    That's not a damn strike. The baseball umps are the worse with the inconsistent strike zones.

    Very inconsistent zone by Cooper tonight, there's been borderline calls and no-calls against both teams.

    They need to strap him into a chair and clamp his eyes open Clockwork Orange style and play a loop of "good Springer" for a few hours.

    Yep... which is frustrating because we saw good Springer on Monday, and he had 2 hits to start yesterday.

    Really thought he was about to go on one of those hot streaks... 9th inning AB killed any sort of confidence.

    Gordon has laid off the Gregerson slider (last night), and Giles slider tonight... and both pitches were actually strikes.

    Only the hitter most responsible for HOU finally winning a postseason series.
