Sweeping the Cardinals really does make the week fly by.

[Outlander]

Have to believe Rob Zastryzny will be back this weekend. Maybe keep Rodriguez tonight in case they need some innings after Crow.

[formerlybis]

The bullpen grid should show Patrick with 61 pitches on Wednesday. A little bit concerned with Crow and Sproat going the first two in this one. Will need Hall, Anderson, and Woodford, and CRod to step in and help out.

Houston has some offense - they've scored exactly one fewer run than the Crew (though have played 58 games to our 53). They allow a ton of runs, though, which explains their losing record. 7-3 over their last 10, though, including hurling a combined no-hitter earlier this week.

Anyone else old enough to remember when Richie Sexson hit a bomb so high at Houston’s stadium, that it hit the pole in center field and the mark stayed there for years after?

And that the pole was technically in play so it only went for a triple. 
 

also that Gomez catch of him running up the hill. 
 

what a stupid ballpark. 

[folly412]

My least favorite park.  If the left field wall were any closer Hamilton would be able to bunt it over.

The mark on the pole was there for years. That was an absolute rocket and Sexson (I believe) got a 3B?

436 feet and approximately 40' up the pole. I don't know what that translates into but that's a poke. Agreed it must've been close to 500'. 

[BruisedCrew]

The Astros have been ravaged with injuries to their SP,. That’s the main reason for their sub .500 record. But they have been scoring a lot of runs; Alvarez has been especially hot this week. 

[Frisbee Slider]

Interesting data on Houston and Milwaukee pitchers:

 

[Jim French Stepstool]

It's nice to miss Arrighetti.

Yordan Alvarez is as hot as just about anyone in MLB right now.

Only thing missing was a moat and some alligators.

[yourout]

That was awfully easy.

[HarryDoyle]

This Teng guy looks absolutely unhittable.

[bensheeps]

That was crushed for Smith

[Sugarrayray]

Why the hell would Murph have Roger Clemens address the team? Not a good look. Known as pretty much not a good dude.

[BarremlensTSSC]

Can't even complain about it being a bandbox if they're going to hit it 420ft.  😆

I think we are in a bit of a teamwide hitting funk right now. It happens to just about every team at some point

I guess it is that close.

Hamilton can call it one.

[yfinn6]

Crawford Boxes giveth. 

[BarremlensTSSC]

I mean, that LF wall and distance is ridiculous but it's ridiculous for both teams I guess!
