The only bright spot to the series so far was when they took a brief two-run lead against Matt Garza in the first game.



Maybe they can avoid the four-game sweep tomorrow but it will have to be a 2-1 or 1-0 win against Yu Darvish.

The Astros are so bad they're rubbing off on the Rangers' mentality.

Despite having the 4th worst record right now. They're too far back at 51-67. The Giants, Cubs and Phillies aren't far back of them with 65 losses. Rockies and Padres have 64 losses. Twins, Angels, Blue Jays and Mariners all have 63 losses. It's possible that the Brewers may not even pick in the top 10.

1. Astros 37-79
2. Marlins 44-72
3. White Sox 44-72

Astros are already losing 2-0 against Yu Darvish. We should be 37-80 in less than two hours, with only 45 games left. The White Sox host the Tigers and the Marlins are at Kansas City later tonight. Hopefully both of them win.

The Astros have a three-game road series coming up with the White Sox on August 26, 27 and 28. That should be fun.

The Astros have lost 6 games in a row and they play at Oakland late tonight (9:05 Houston start time). So I have to stay up until midnight just to see them lose again: Jordan Lyles (4-6, 5.40 ERA) versus the amazing 40-year-old ageless wonder, Bartolo Colon (14-4, 2.75 ERA).

Whether it's Yu Darvish, Felix Hernandez or Bartolo Colon, it seems like we've been facing all of the best AL pitchers a lot this season.
Thanks a lot Bud Selig. The move to the American League West was a great idea. At least we avoided the injured Jarred Weaver.

It's not even fun for me anymore this season but I can stomach another 45 games.
We already have the 2014 first overall pick next June on lockdown pretty much.

Astros beat the Athletics 5-4. That's a winner baby. 38-80 record. Do we have a new closer now?



Chia-Jen Lo, hasn't given up a run since being called up to the big leagues.

6.1 innings pitched, so sample size, and he picked up the save tonight with a scoreless ninth and also got the last out in the eighth.

But in fairness, Chia-Jen Lo got lucky tonight. He nearly gave up the walk-off, two-run homer to both Eric Sogard and Chris Young in back-to-back at bats. People say that football is a game of inches but baseball is as well. Young missed that home run by not even an inch. Unbelievable finish tonight.
