Astros at Cardinals – I Wouldn’t Dig in There if I Were You

Posted on May 27, 2008 by Craig in Series Previews

The Astros went 4-3 on a mediocre homestand, though it included some exciting wins against the Phillies and a series win against the dumbshit Cubs. Now it’s back onto the road, believe it or not, for another long-ass trip to three cities. It’s all NL Central for the next two weeks, with visits to St. Louis, Milwaukee, and Pittsburgh, and then back home for another series with the Jakes and then the Brewers again. Whew.

(Wait! Pittsburgh? Holy shit, I thought you guys had moved to Canada or something! Is it true, I heard the Wilson Sisters may be getting back together! Tell Dirty Sanchez we said hi!)

Anyway, the shitbag Co-Ards. They’re a half-game behind the BOOK IT! Cubs, and one game ahead of the Astros. They’re just getting back to New Jake City after a West Coast trip where they won two out of three against both the Dojers and Fathers. They were late getting home because they let Albert Pujols fly the plane; he insisted on hotdogging through the Gateway Arch and crashed into one of the legs.

The Good & Bad Report: Salem

Posted on May 26, 2008 by Duman in From the Bus Stop

May is winding down and it’s time to take a glimps at the Carolina League stats and see where the Avs stack up. The Avs are currently 21-27 and in last place in the Carolina League Southern division. All rankings are out of 8 teams in the league and are current as of 5/26/08.

The Good:

The Hitters

As a team, Salem leads the league with 120 doubles. The 20 foot tall outfield fences at Salem Memorial might have something to do with that. Salem is 3rd in total hits and in walks taken.

Astros Settle for Split

Posted on May 26, 2008 by pravata in Game Recaps

Seeking to expand on the great plays of the previous two games, El Kabong did his part, knocking a three run homer in the first, but not before knocking out the home plate umpire on the follow through of a swing in his first at bat.

Weekend Update

Round Rock

Saturday night, the Express lost to Omaha for the 9th straight time. According to David Clark, the problems began with Josh Miller leaving the ball up.

“(Miller) started leaving the ball up a little bit and they came out swinging,” Clark said. “When you got a free-swinging club like those guys got over there, when you make mistakes they are going to put a charge on it.”
