Listless. Uninspired. Mailing it in. Dare I say, jaking it? After watching this team give one crappy performance after another, one wonders exactly what will get them out of the funk they are in. Read More
The space travelers visit the seafarers for the first time this season. Much has been discussed about the fact that the Astros ain’t never been to Pittsburgh, while the Cubs have had an inordinate number of games against them, winning 9 of 12. After going 3-7 in their last ten games, the Good Guys need to win more than one night in Pittsburgh, and avoid a repeat last year’s 0-6 start against the Bucs. Read More
Astros (24-18) at Rangers (20-22)
Now there are lots of things I could use. A new stove, a $10,000 prepaid gas card, a massage by Johnny Depp in easily removable pirate attire just to name a few.

After a 6 game winning streak, the Astros have dropped their last two (fuck the Jakes), so a change of scenery could do them some good. So its off to Arizona, the home of the Diamondbacks, the leaders in the NL West. This series will be the first time that Berkman is reunited with his long-time man love, Chris Burke, who was traded with Quall’s Balls and Gutierrez to Arizona for Ponche. Expect an extended makeout session at 1B if Burke gets on base, in fact he may pull up at first on what should be a double, just to have some much needed alone time with Lance. Of course, since Burke is batting .143 for the season, and only .059 against the Astros pitchers he has faced, the chance for liplock may never materialize.Read More

The upcoming series between the Astros and the pHillies could be an early indicator, yes, even an acid test, of the team’s gelling together–add a little phenolpthalein and see what you get (usually the runs). Read More
