Houston Astros!!!! We did again for the 2nd straight year. Man at the beginning of the season I gave this guys no hope, they were extremely horrible. But man talk about a turn around!!! Now lets go for the ATL boys but I tell you it should be a good series.

Good luck vs ATL... last few weeks those Braves looked like they were winning effortlessly AND having fun doing it. Seems like the new kids that brought up (Francouer and McCain) really set a spark off in that team. It'll be a good series, always is.

Yeah, hopefully it'll be a great series to watch. Go Stros'! We got a good pitching rotation and a good *** closer with Lidge. Wonder how Beltran' is feeling with is over paid ***!

Braves have no depth.
As long as our hitting stays around with our pitching we should be fine.

ya.. aint it the truth... a few years ago, all the braves had was depth... now they have no pitching, and no bench. Ah well, we'll see what happens. IF the Braves get through to the next round, i doubt they'll go much further. Both are good teams.

when does this series start?

Well, is the 8th inning and the score is Stros'-10 and Braves-3. Game is pratically in the bag unless something goes haywire we got game one!

ya.... braves pitchers look awfully nervous... hopefully the rest of the games will actually be good. I'm just glad this all happened late for atlanta or the bullpen would have been exhausted.

I'm a little nervous... 6-6 in the bot of the 11th... the astros pitching is tough, wish braves had a bullpen this year.
