Maybe it's just me but I swear Jim Thome swings and misses at every single off speed pitch.

It's the only reason that I hate the White Sox more than the Twins (okay, not the only reason because I REALLY hate the White Sox, but still).

The constant stealing of the division from the Tigers.

Still think Boof has the stuff to be a solid reliever.

Ankiel looks like God compared to McLouth. 2 hits 2 RBI. I don't think McLouth did that in a month

Yovani Gallardo with 12 strikeouts in 6 innings and just one run.
Oh and we've put up 13 on the Cubs.

Astros bat around in the 9th against STL, and win 9-4. Westbrook pitched well for the Cards, but Houston took it to the pen. Brett Wallace picked up his 1st career RBI on a single, he also walked and was hit by a pitch. Rookie Chris Johnson is back up over .340 now after going 2-5 with a 2B and 2 RBI. Jeff Keppinger added 4 RBI with 2 hits including his 26th 2B. Hes now hitting a very solid .293/.355.
Thats 6 wins in a row for Houston, and 7 of 8.

Hey, we're 2 back of being 3rd in the division :D
But really, our constant buying and having no system is a result of our jackass owner who always thinks we can compete.

If Wallace learned how to use his lower body when hitting a baseball. Look out

Well the Tigers collapse last year was even worse than ours 2 years ago. I know them when I see them.

It's like god is testing the Phillies this year. Talk about injury bug, jesus.
Ibanez with a wrist issue.
Howard with a sprained ankle.
Utley out.
Victorino out.
Ruiz, Rollins, and Polanco have all missed time.
Good thing we have Domonic Brown.
