This could mean Houston's first-ever trip to the Trop. Which would also be my first "root for the road team" dilemma since I moved to Florida.

As long as it means endless replays of the six-pitcher no hitter, I'm all for it.

"Even if the Rocket doesn't return, Astros fans will still get to see Andy Pettitte on the mound in Houston again."

Richard Justice must know the inside scoop on AP.    Andy doesn't even know yet:

"I'm telling everybody, 'Seriously, I'm just trying to get through the season,'" he said. "I really haven't thought about it."

IMO, I would much rather have AP back than DQ, or both.

Pettitte has 16 million reasons to pitch again next year.  Unless God tells him otherwise.  I have a feeling God's going to remain silent on the matter, though.

Right. DQ has looked pretty human this season.

He is a 5 inning pitcher, though those 5 were very good innings in Houston.  Did he go on the DL with his elbow?

No DL  for DQ he's on the hill Sunday against the BOSX, ESPN Game, I'm glad they finally put Yankee VS Red Sox on TV we never get to see that match up.

You'll get it tonight on ESPN, too. And I'm sure it will be the Fox game tomorrow. Can't get too much of it, you know?

So are you saying God has 1.6 million reasons for him to pitch?

Surely God is only interested in Net income, right?

No.  No overhead, doesn't pay taxes.

Nope.  Many churches expect donations based on gross income.

Why wouldn't they?  The net income argument doesn't make sense.
