    Please keep this to talk about the series. As usual no Play-by-Play, or general Astros talk. If you need play by play see one of the many other sites that have game casts.

    Go Astros!!

    Let's see... one of the hottest-hitting teams currently in the NL, versus Myers, Norris, Paulino, and the Astros' lineup...

    I don't like our chances in this series. I'd be happy with avoiding a sweep.

    Johnson will dominate us but we will at least be in the other two games.

    Johnson's been pretty pedestrian so far. Looked good in his last outing against the Reds, though.

    Under. The lack of walks is embarrassing. Oswalt is tied for 3rd on the team with 1. Only Bourn & Kepp have more.

    The Stros have been historically bad at drawing walks so far, I'll go ahead and go with under lol.

    With a loss last night, Round Rock matched the Astros at 3-9: http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?t=l_sta&lid=112&sid=t102

    Jason Castro is still searching for his fist XBH but has a nice BB/SO ratio as has been the case at every level.

    And here's an interesting read from last season about our 2009 draft class' performance: http://blogs.chron.com/unofficialscorer/2009/09/sad_state_of_astros_young_mino.html

    You don't want to put much stock in W-L record, as Levine points out, but there are still some interesting observations.

    That articles is only talking about our lowest level of the minors. If I'm not mistaken, though, I remember reading that our overall farm system also has the worst W-L record by far over the last several years.
