    We've actually scored more runs this season than the Braves, 112 to 111.

    But their pitching sure looks goods.

    I hope we can break out on the road woes, and maybe Berkman's return can give the Astros a lift.

    LWWL.

    Biggio smashes a double off the wall.

    Second and third, no outs.

    EDIT: Viz bounce out score Tvareas and moves Biggio over.

    The TBS guys said Berkman might play some first?

    That makes perfect sense actually, given our first base issues and his healing ACL.

    He already was our 1B of the future... especially since one is on the way out, and we have no real 1B prospects in the system (but a slew of OF prospects).

    Right now, w/ Bagwell's injury and his ACL... this could just be speeding up the inevitable.

    Maybe Backe shouldn't be pitching so soon after that flu he had....

    Ausmus really sucks. That was a passed ball, not a wild pitch.

    Heck, with Berkman, we have to have some hope, right?

    Any idea how much time Bagwell is expected to miss?
