WLW Munro hasn't impressed me at all his last couple of starts. Peavy just returned from the DL, so dont expect him to be sharp.
We will win this series, I don't know if I want to saw sweep. Mainly because we haven't swept anyone since the Pirates which was back in May IIRC. ALthough, now would be a good time to start sweeping people again. The Padres have been a suprisingly good team. But the Astros seem to have turned it aroudn, even after the ass whooping they were served last night. I am loving how Ensberg has foud his groove, and Beltran does seem to love the road. Go Astros! WWL.
WWW. Like I said Friday, we'll be in the wild card position this time next week. And a certain streak will be stopped this weekend.
The Astros should win this series. Then again they should have won every series they've lost in the past month. All I know is, the last game will be a good one. Roy has been dominant lately, and Peavy is on my fantasy team and has been a stud this year. Roger should have had 11 wins a long time ago, lets get him the win tonight, Astros.
I can hardly wait for this one ... I'll be going to the first two games of this series. You might see me up the first base line near the bullpen in my bright orange retro shirt!!!!! WWW baby!
That's fine, because this team has a hard enough problem hitting HR's in the park that's one of the easiest. We do give them up there though... thus, we're already at an advantage.
