No, that would be Oswalt's wife.

[UMFan83]

This will be Paulino's first major league start as his other innings have come out of the pen.

[Moonlight Graham]

Come on Disastros WIN!

[CUBZ99]

Is this Paulino a top rated prospect with filthy stuff?

[otis89]

Felipe Paulino: 0-0, 11.25 ERA

 

Who?

[Lockes Eye Scar]

Paulino was in AA this year and his numbers were nothing special.

[UMFan83]

He was BA's number 7 prospect (just below Hunter Pence) for the Astros in 2005

[Little Slide Rooter]

No need to scoreboard watch. This is a guaranteed win for the Brewers. They're 12-4 vs. Houston this year with their ace on the mound vs. a nobody.

 

Meanwhile we have ace vs. ace, so its all on big Zs shoulders tonight.

[Flames24Rulz]

Hahaha, yeah the Astros aren't winning this.

[CubmanPi]

Ryan Braun and Corey Hart will combine to go 7-10, 3HR, 9RBI.

I like Sheets and all, but I'm wishing a rather large blister on his finger right now.

 

I might even call the witch who used to live in the other half of my old duplex and see if she'll do some voo doo or something like that....

[Butterscup1679666578]

I actually kind of have a good feeling that the Astros will pull out a W tonight.

 

 

Which more than likely means the Brewers will win 18-0

Wasn't it Clemens and Halladay that Mitre out-dueled a couple years ago?....Stranger things have happened.

Brewers win eleventy billion to two.

[E.J.]

I just can't see a way the Astros win tonight. I know anyone can win on any given night, but the odds are definitely stacked against them. Let's just hope we win tonight so it won't matter.

[weatherdood]

I have a feeling, nothing more than a feeling, that Sheets is going to have another rough start tonight....and the Brewer pen is going to be taxed. Stros win, 7-5

Yeah, Sheets has been lit up in two consecutive starts so it's not inconceivable that the trend continues tonight. The odds are against the Astros but the Brewers bad defense might come into play tonight. Who knows? It would be nice to see their road woes continue!

Sad to say, but I would feel SO much better if Wandy was pitching for the Stros :)

Why the heck is Pence sitting?

[weatherdood]

Once Houston was officially eliminated from the postseason, they finally gave up. About 6 weeks too late

[chuckywang]

Brewer fans are STILL getting their panties all in a bunch over the double switch yesterday.

 

Geez, just let it go already.

[inari]

Sheets is hurt.
