    This is the series where we come back to earth. Quite a few guys come down from hot streaks and it feels like a struggle.

    We only win 3 of 4.

    Really want to take this series. The only thing that annoys me about this season is that the two teams we've lost to are the only two who have been to the WS in the last couple of years.

    Next on the Evisceration List: Kansas City. Time to exorcise the demons of 2015, and put these assholes in their place. I will still never forgive them for breaking Springer's wrist that season. Bunch of punks.

    they raise up when they play us. I'll be happy with 2-2 but what the hell sweep them all.

    The winning streak will inevitably end. Just not today as Fiers is rolling and, if not, then the offense is. ;)

    I'm not being cocky. I'm perfectly calm, dude. I did not know that.

    So if I'm looking at that right, Astros have the advantage at the plate 1-9. I, at first, thought they might have a hitting advantage at the 6th spot when I saw Moustakas batting there....but looking over at Astros lineup, we have Marwin there.
