I would not at all be surprised to see Dillon playing left against, batting 6th or 7th. Anyway, a sweep would be nice, but always unrealistic. We just have to continue to win series from here on out.

We'll also be facing three rookie pitchers in this series as Woody Williams was scratched from the rotation.
No excuse not to win this series.

Williams sent to the pen and Oswalt scratched because his wife is having a baby. I think Houston doesn't like the Cubs.
Yovani just needs to keep doing what he's been doing. Sheets is back Tuesday night on 3 days rest due to his short outing.

I'm glad we aren't facing Williams and Oswalt....
However we have hit Oswalt pretty well this year and we all know the Crew struggles against misc. rookie pitchers (insert Tom Shearn etc.).
Hope we can reverse that trend. If the Stros really hated the Cubs they would sit Pence and Berkman too!

And the Brewers miss Wandy Rodriguez, too, who has been almost unhittable at home (except for his last start).

Weeks' dumb baserunning cost the Brewers a run, but Corey makes up for him.

LOL at Prince running.
Another RBI for Corey.

another run now....a hustling fielder gets in after he causes a throwing error......and now gross just doubles in hart, 4-0. nothing spectacular tonight, but it sure is solid baseball, which is great to see.

Come on guys...don't even let them get close. Get out of this 1st & 3rd and let's just get a win with no end game pressure.

Eh, he's thrown a lot of pitches I wouldn't mind letting someone else finish this off.
That said, I could see them bringing him back out.

No, his spot in the lineup is due up 2nd I think, and he's wearing down. Although I do not want to see Aquino come in.
The Astros have a nice offense to get guys on base, but no one seems to ever bring them home.
