re: Your Daily How the Hell Are we Still in First Place Houston Astros Thread

I'm just gonna suggest letting Carter DH instead of gattis for a game or 2. He really squared some up in oakland and drove the run in agaisnt bum. Gattis has been bad for awhile

Any way to watch those?

Also, I'm sitting in traffic so looking up the stats isn't very convenient right now, but I think Feldman deserves a shoutout. Coming off injury most people including myself were very skeptical about him being in the rotation during a playoff chase. Dude has been as solid as we can ask for

Angels take 1-0 lead in Chicago in the 5th but Danks avoids anymore damage. Looks like Heaney is cruising so far, just 2 hits in 46 pitches through 4 innings

milb.tv is $30 a year I think. I am considering buying it next year.

That's actually not a bad deal. My initial thought was "if the Astros are having a season like this, I would spend every night watching them thus never watching milb, but between off days, day games (for either Astros or affiliates) like today, nights the Astros are getting killed, and even the all star break when minors are still playing I feel like you'd watch atleast 30 games. And paying $1 a game is no big deal. I remember for good portion of the last 2 seasons I would be reading/more interested in our minor league teams than the Astros

And also with Fresno being out on the west coast, you can catch a few innings of AAA after the Astros are done. There will be a lot of exciting arms in Fresno next year that I can see myself wanting to watch

Also, the Rangers sure do miss playing us.

Twins up 11-0 in the 5th

Chicago doing what the Astros can't and bring home RISP with 2 outs

Angels down to their final 3 outs

Appel about to get that ERA into the 3's for the first time in a lon..forever
