Roy O went seven strong innings, only allowing three runs and still lost the game.  The Astros meager lineup only produced one run.  This week Carlos Lee’s bat went cold so has the offense.  Morgan Ensberg currently leads all the everyday players with a .269 average.  Lance Berkman seems to find some life as he [...]

Howdy Howdy,
Okay, we got our butts kicked last night as Chris Sampson had his worse outing of the year. Hopefully, Woody Williams can get the win tonight and help us break out of this losing streak.

There was a really bad odor coming from Minute Maid Park earlier this week. I think Uncle Drayton will need to check the “pumpkins” in the train’s cargo hold. I know something really bad smelled from the park, and I seriously doubt it was the “pumpkins.”
This is no way to get around it, [...]

I know, I know, I know…everyone is “annoyed” with Brad Lidge for blowing the Save last night.  Roy Oswalt pitched 7 2/3 innings allowing only one run which should be good enough for a win.  Before everyone blames Lidge for this loss, let me point out a couple of things.  The Astros had nine hits [...]
