    Remember, no PBP in these threads and keep the chatter on topic (if it is about something other than this series, talk about it in another thread).

    According to the recent Yahoo! article, anyone who reads this thread between now about 6:30 knows the Brewers starters before Berkman. :D

    At this point, I don't rightly care how the series turns out. I'm thoroughly uninspired with this team as of late. There is a side of me that kind of hopes they continue their flush down the toilet. They teased us with some brilliant play a few weeks back...which they could not sustain. Now, we are back to ho hum. When Berkman calls the team mediocre, I then take my cue to start watching the scoreboards only and not give in to watching mediocre baseball. All that confidence they had a few weeks back seems shot now. I have to say it's disappointing to be back to where we are now after some excellent baseball for a spurt there.

    From looking at the scoreboard on Yahoo!, it looks like Roy brought some stuff tonite with 5 Ks in 3 innings. Hopefully, he won't give up any more homeruns, or runs for that matter (lol), this game.

    Wow, it's actually fun to watch Roy pitch tonight instead of being excruciatingly painful

    Lance hit the crap out of that pitch on a 1-2 count. He could overtake Bagwell's 1994 performance.

    Just got in... looks like Berkman and Oswalt owned the game tonight.

    Great to see Oswalt pitch like Oswalt.

    Hunter going 0-5 doesn't look good but he only had 1 SO. I assume he had some bad luck.

    Waiting for Tejada to get out of this mini-slump. I saw him take some truly horrendous hacks en route to a strikeout during the last game I was able to watch.

    It was great to see Oswalt pitch well. He really had his stuff tonight. 10 Ks.

    Hunter just had a bad night. It happens.

    I am getting concerned about Miggy. Hopefully he will break out of this slump. It is hard to believe that his average has dropped 45 points in the last 3 weeks or so.

    I don't understand why Wiggy got benched. He is the hottest Astros hitter other than Berkman. He made an error last game so I guess that's the reason. Bourn made an error and still played last night while Darin Erstad is red hot. Doesn't make a lot of sense.

    Ok, let's get this series tied up. Can't believe how badly Parra owned us a few weeks back. It's payback time!

    It seems like every Astro pitcher has either broken, or is on pace to break, their own personal record as far as HRs allowed.
