I take it this view is thru Carthage glasses. Same view as seeing DCTF with a bias against Carthage? I hear that's the word but it's only coming from Carthage peeps. Pretty certain the view is quite different from a Mustang perspective. I have seen many many WO-S games in my lifetime and dirty is not their makeup.

Why can't Spence be on playoff roster?

Final 9-0 Houston Astros finish 81-81. West Champs. Never a doubt.

That's 8 West Division championships in last 10 years.

End 7 8-0 Stros

Final Arlington 4 Twins 6 Houston advances to the playoffs.

Mid 7 Astros 8 A's 0 End 8 Arlington 2 Twins 6

End 5 Astros 4 A's 0 Arlington 1 Twins 5

Well it is less than the average for this series. 😉

Houston is starting Lambert today on just two days rest. Lambert started Thursday against the A's, going 2 and 2/3rds, giving up 4 runs on 6 hits (2 HR), 6 K's and 2 BB. A total of 62 pitches. Look for him to go no more than 3 innings today then bring in Sousa, Blubaugh, Hendrickson, Abreu and Hader. Hader hasn't pitched since Wednesday so he could go two innings if needed. With Wesneski going 7 innings last night, Houston didn't have to use any of their leverage guys out of the pen. Blanco pitched the last two innings giving up no runs on no hits, 3 K's. Sousa, Blubaugh and Hendrickson have not pitched since Friday. Sousa 5 pitches, Blubaugh 15, Hendrickson 4. Abreu hasn't pitched since Thursday going 1 1/3 with 14 pitches. In other words, Houston bullpen should be rested if one can say that in Game 162. A's are making it a bullpen day. They are starting reliever Seth Johnson. Johnson pitched against Houston on Friday. 1 IP, 1 H, 1 run, 1 K. He gave up a HR to Smith. Had a total of 16 pitches. His ERA on the season is 6.19. Houston will need to continue to produce runs like they did last night against an A's pitching staff that is the worst in the AL with a team ERA of 5.48. Houston has a team ERA of 4.48. In this current series with the A's the Astros have scored 25 runs in 3 games. Give me 8 runs by Houston today and I like our chances.

Actually, Houston has three paths. Astros win division: with a win or Arlington loss or any tie (both teams win or lose) Arlington wins division: with a win and an Astro loss
