    Pressly kept shaking his hand or flexing his wrist after almost every pitch in the 9th inning.

    Something is amiss.

    Wait, the game is official now. Okay, Rangers are 89-71, Astros are 88-72, and Mariners are 87-73. If the Astros win tomorrow and the Mariners win tomorrow, then it'll be Astros in 1st at 89-72, then the Rangers at 89-72, then Mariners at 88-73. In that scenario, the ... damn it. You're right. Need to sweep to win the division. Oh well, one at a time.

    Did the serpientes clinch a wildcard with the Cubs losing? Just saw a few talking about it in the earlier pages.

    Lol. Honestly, I thought it was a tad too early to pull him when he went out there.

    Big balls Urquidy showed up. The guy who has more world series wins than Verlander.

    We can still easily win the division at this point, that just made it a little harder.

    We just need to acknowledge that the team is bored with the regular season.

    They like big games.

    Thats when you see a resemblance of the real Astros.

    So we need Urquidy to teach Diaz and McCormick that look.

    Column headers are overrated :)

    9 scenarios:
    Stros make the playoffs in 7 of them
    WC in 5 of them
    Division in 2 of them

    That's good, because I'm feeling a big game from Alvarez and Brantley. Sounds like a win to me.

    We need to win the division and give the arms rest.
    It can happen… win two more games and Seattle splits.
