    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.

    4-27 Sean Manaea (L) vs. Dallas Keuchel (L) 7:10

    4-28 Daniel Mengden (R) vs. Lance McCullers Jr. (R) 6:10

    4-29 Trevor Cahill (R) vs. Gerrit Cole (R) 1:10

    First series Astros have faced multiple starting pitchers pitching better than the Astros counterpart so far this season. I do expect Keuchel and McCullers to be better going forward.

    Manaea's a good pitcher, but he's had a lot of good fortune on the BABIP front so far.

    We're gonna get to him tonight.

    Looking at statcast Dallas is as sharp tonight as he has been all season. Chapman squared that one up. But that is bound to happen from time to time

    Good seeing Keuchel return to form.

    If the pitching staff is healthy for the postseason, hard to see us losing.
