    Kerry has a better chance of winning Texas then we do of sweeping the Cubs with those pitching matchups

    The Astros were dead in the water weeks ago, nothing has changed. I'd have alot more fun watching youngsters playing now than an old, mediocre team playing out the string.

    Hey, quick question that needs a QUICK answer!

    Are the Outfield deck seats even worth it? I can get three tickets for $11, but is the view ok? I just don't feel like spending another $80 on tickets this weekend. Anyone ever sat in the Outfield deck seats before?

    If you are sitting in right field then those are some really nice seats. If you get there early you will have a good chance to get some baseballs during B.P. Crawford seats are the best but they are always sold out.

    Oswalt vs Wood should be good.

    For a family of 6 getting tickets for 14 dollars total, I had no problem with the view on the thirdbase side.

    The way Ensberg hits with RISP, i'd move him ahead of Kent and Bagwell in the lineup.

    I think Garciaparra just did that... get him out of here.

    Man... the Cubs just kill bad pitching... with HR's.

    Man that Cubs lineup IMO is the second best lineup in baseball behind the Cards. When you can throw out Patterson,Nomar,Lee,Alou,Ramirez, and Sosa thats pretty damn good. With Miller and Pettite done for the year that pretty much ended any hope of going heads up with the Cubs. This lineup and pitching staff just can't do it.
