    Not even going to bother with a series prediction. Win a ****ing game for once at least.

    No game prediction here either. But if we don't find a way to play better, then expect a similar result as the last series.

    Bull pen is gassed. Not looking forward to the 6th inning.

    Not a good sign for this to be true in March.

    So, is it April Fools that the Astros are 0-4?

    With each major arm in the vaunted bullpen blowing games?

    No it's the first game of the season.

    What in the hell else would I be talking about? It is weird that Blanco is getting the opening day nod I will admit, but he had a good spring.

    9 of the 23 pitchers on Houston’s 40 man roster are on the IL. Coleman is the only healthy 40 man arm in the minors. I personally would not mind seeing Scott swapped out for Strotman or Contreras to get a fresh arm up there until JV or Sousa or comes back.

    I think overall I liked what I saw from the first series. Starting pitching looked good and Yainer looks like he might be primed for a huge season.

    Too bad, the Yankees will benefit from this series in the standings because Blue Jays will get spanked. Timely hitting and shut down bullpen will be back.
