We don't have a chance in hell in this one. Chacon is going to get lit up like the 4th of July against the best lineup in all of baseball. Our hitters are nothing more than mediocre AA players who don't deserve to even sniff the field. We're going to lose this one badly, I predict a double-digit loss on our part. Sure we've won 2 in a row, but it has to end because it was just a fluke, not a sign of the team getting it together.

/end Iggy-like pessimistic rant.

Just kidding, we got this in the bag baby! Just another step on the way back to .500!

Seriously, I'd love to see them win 2 series in a row, tonight is a chance to get that started. GO ASTROS!

Anyone think we might end up facing Lidge in the 9th and get a chance to Pujols him? I sure hope so.

An familiar friend, Eric Bruntlett is in the lineup.

The Astros finally moved Pence down in the lineup since he's horrible.

Maybe he can get it going now..

Yeah hopefully. When Matsui comes back he is going to move up to 6.

Need to score some damn runs. Chacon has pitched solid tonight and I'd hate to see yet another solid start from one of our guys go to waste.

Wow, 8 shutout innings so far for Chacon. Very nice. We better not screw it up.

I hope we don't use Valverde, I don't feel like having a heart attack tonight.

Wow. What did I say. Man I have already learned to hate this Valverde POS. Seriously, this is no different than Lidge's struggles.

If we lose this game because of his worthless ass I'm going to be very very mad.

Sigh.

Trade him. Now. This is ridiculous. We don't even need Lidge back, we have him already.

That is **** UNBELIEVABLE.

What an amazingly worthless **** scrub. Seriously. 4 runs in the bottom of the 9th? Really? GET THE **** OUT OF HERE YOU POS.

Wow.


I don't know what else to say. Chacon pitched 8 beautiful innings, we manage to score a few runs. What a pathetic way to lose a game.

Ya, seriousley this is so pathetic, Valverde has blown it pretty much every time he's come out to pitch, unbelievably horrible.
