Originally I was all in favor of bringing Montero back, but looking at what he has done... I kind of feel like we caught lightning in a bottle with him and don't think it will last.

I disagree, but could be wrong. It just feels like the makings of a career year for him, where somebody will overpay him.

Some team will pay him closer money, to be their closer. Astros will be looking for the next reliever that is a former closer. One they can revive their career

Big game today. The pressure should really be on the Phillies since they have this game and game 4 before they can use either Nola or Wheeler again.

Regardless of how our starting pitchers perform, a big part of the game plan needs to be forcing them to use their relievers as much as possible. This is where our strength comes in pitching depth wise and we need to take advantage. Syndergaard is not stretched out and Suarez in Game 4 won't be able to go super deep either. Get to the pen early and really make them work.

I bet Stearns tries to keep Montero.

Here's to hoping the Astros at least come back to Houston with three total wins.

Win today and tomorrow. Then the pressure is on. Then win either game 5 or 6 against Nola or Wheeler.

Two out of three away wins should be the floor of acceptance. If they don't at least do this then they have failed.

It’s time to put up or shut up.

As long as we score 1 more run than they do tonight I am good.

In sports you have to have luck on your side. The Phillies are going back home with a split on one lucky catch.
With what the Stros have faced on the road in the last few years, especially at Yankee Stadium, the Bank crowd can't be any worse.
Put up a lead early and see a few dropped throws by Hoskins at first and the boo's will start.

Looks like we have rain to deal with in Philly tonight. Annoying. Get a da*n retractable roof.

Here we go again. Forecast does not look good and they're meeting with both teams to discuss what the plan will be for tonight...

IF YOU CANNOT PROVIDE A VIABLE VENUE FOR THE GAME, YOU SHOULD FORFEIT THE GAME.
Why do I have to keep saying this?

Here is another story that needs the author to be beaten about head and shoulders. Supposedly the bat in Game One used by Maldy was illegal. And now they say the Astros were cheating again. I think Maldy would know they would be checking that stuff and not intentionally using an illegal bat.
