I still hold a grudge from when George W. Bush was one of the owners.

O'Dowd is no longer the GM, and they've signed good players who are not Tebow types. This is 10 year old crap.

As a long time Astros fan, it's great to be "that" team...down 6 runs in the 8th? No problem, lets score 11. Add a couple more in the 9th. Of course, the Twins bullpen is pretty overworked, but hey, we'll take it!

Hi,

I just looked at the box scores from the 3 games, not only did the Astros sweep the series, but they scored 40 runs doing it. That is just insane, who are these guys !
I just hope for all of us long suffering fans, this is the year !!!!!!!!
