Default Go Astros!

6 game losing streak! Just as everyone was getting used to them performing well. Oh well, back to the good ol choke artist Astros.

C'mon. I figure after last season you would have a little more faith. We are still playing better baseball this year and I don't see this losing streak being a recurring event

I know. Our bullpen is sucking hind tit also. I guess when you start off as shitty as last year, you can hit a few bumps in the road.

9-6 isn't exactly a "blowout". Several key players going through slumps at the same time makes for losses. We'll turn it around.

Id rather have them hit the road bumps early in the season than later.

Just wait, they'll turn it around and all of a sudden everybody is going to love the Astros, everybody is going to wear their Astros merchandise, and all of a sudden all the Astros professionals come out and give you their opinion. IT IS THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON!!!! JEEEEEZ.

Yeah. I was thinking the same thing last night at that time, but I kept watching and hoping for a miracle. I'm glad Lance got 3 more RBIs.

Astros will be alright even though Clemens will not be back, they still have a strong lineup and good pitching. Hell I have to deal with the Rangers being in first and in the bottom of the 2nd it was 10 - 0, but we are used to it. The Stros will hit there stride and and I believe make the playoffs again this year.

Lidge almost blew another save today. Garner had to pull him out in the bottom of the 9th, because he allowed a hit, a run and walked 3. He was pulled with the bases loaded and Wheeler had to come in and finish off the game for the win.
