50% of Morton's 20 starts he has allowed 1 or fewer earned runs this season.

I remember when we signed him I said aloud in my car, “who the fuck is Charlie Morton?” Well, we all know who CFM is now and he has fast become probably my favorite Astro. If you watched the all-star game and heard the story the announcers shared from AJ about when he told Charlie he was an all-star, well, that sums him up.

I LOVE THE GUY!

Only team in all of MLB that can say that.  Every 5 days, just like clockwork.
Another trenchant comment by a jealous lesser intellect.

i thought the same thing.  We've been so fortunate this season with the relative health of this team, especially pitching.

Jesus H. Christ. I return from eating a delicious brisket Reuben sandwich for lunch, and all my heartburn is only coming from posters here tempting to BBGs left and right. Now I’m going to have to slaughter a goat to appease the gods on a full stomach.

Eat a fried spleen sandwhich. That should fix everything right? Sacrifices must be made. Thanks!

The sins of the poster will be passed down to the 2nd baseman.  Please make the appropriate sacrifices. 
Always ready to go to a game.

Do you you cut the head off a live rooster, or does that just take the curse off a glove? (Well, we could use that too.)
