    All series talk goes in here. Non series talk goes somewhere else. No PBP, that can be found from other sources if you need it. All games are broadcast on AT&T Sports SW unless otherwise noted.

    8-9 Wade Miley (L) vs. Dylan Bundy (R) 6:05

    8-10 Aaron Sanchez (R) vs. Aaron Brooks (R) 6:05

    8-11 Justin Verlander (R) vs. Asher Wojciechowski (R) 12:05

    The Orioles just had the Yankees drop 32 in 3 games. They finally get them out of town only for the Astros to fly in next.

    I hope our boys at least have the common courtesy to use lubrication.

    Sanchez may throw back to back no hitters. The next 7 days should be a cake walk.

    Isn't Asher an old farmhand for the Stros?

    He actually made the opening day squad back in 2015, so he's a full fledged former Astro.

    He was one of the 800 prospects Luhnow got when we were stripping the club for parts.

    Astros may have not developed drafted and developed an ace during Luhnow's tenure, but 2nd division position player starters, backups, relievers, and crappy BoR starters from Astros are all over the place.

    Part of the mediocre JA Happ and Brandon Lyon (remember him?) trade to Toronto, iirc.

    I get him confused with Brett Oberholtzer from Atlanta, sometimes.

    I'll take the under, but an equally valid question is whether he'll hit the warehouse and give Ken Griffey, Jr. some company.

    For a regular season game, Lance Berkman was the closest 430 feet down the line. So close. Jay Gibbons was 425 for second place down the line.
