My internet connection took a shit last weekend and still hasn’t recovered. A repairman is supposed to be here later today but I lnow everyone’s waiting on pins and needles to hear about how the Astros’ weekend series is shaping up, so I’m going to try to write this shit on my goddamn phone.
Don’t expect any fancy formatting or links or pictures or shit. I could probably do it my phone if I tried hard enough, but fuck it. The entire Astros team is phoning it in at this point, so I will too. Though at least I can play Angry Birds on my phone; Drayton probably scaled back the Astros’ phone system to just trac-phones and
international calling cards.
Notable giveaways
A totebag on Friday, replica jersey on Saturday, and something for the kids on Sunday called a cuddle puppy. It looks like a cross between a cheap stuffed toy and a doormat, so at least it’s an accurate depiction of this year’s Astros. Plus it has kind of a sad look on its face, like it just heard Michael Bourn got traded to the goddamn Braves.
Discuss today’s game in the Gamezone, unless you’re restricted to your phone like I am. In that case just use MLB At-Bat or something.

Pitching Probables
Fuck if I know. Does it really matter? About all I could say is that Carlos Lee hit a couple dingers off this or that pitcher, and Clint Barmes hits him ok too. Dicknose Braun probably does well againsy Wandy and Myers, and probably Happ too
