Redbirds Rule!

Something you forget, CC:

Last time St. Louis played Houston, they swept em three straight, beating Pettite, Oswalt, and the Rocket.

So, if the 'Stros don't do any better head-to-head than that, it doesn't matter who has more home games, road games, etc....

Just hope the Braves roll over like last yeat in the playoffs.

Nope, I didn't forget it. In two of those games, the breaks went the Cardinals way and they got lucky. We've got six more with St. Louis and if the Astros don't at least split those, there's no hope.

SFW. The 'stros are a historically 2nd half team and this season is no exception. When the "Red Coats" meet up with the Good Guys again, things will be different.

And Sarge, I won't bet that the Astros will catch SL. While I do believe that the 'stros will win a large % of their remainding games, I don't think SL will lose a large % of theirs. There just isn't enough time left in the reg. season for them to catch them.

On the other hand I will offer this bet:

1 box of Sancho Panza Dbl Maduro Quixote that the Good Guys will take at least 3 of the last 5 games they play against SL.

What do you say?

That's an interesting bet, I'll bet you a box of Padron 1926's that the Cubs not only don't make it within 10 games of the wildcard this year, they won't make the playoffs next year, and in fact, will not win a world series until the apocolypse

Yeah! Go Sox! WHITE SOX!!!

Boston is gonna get their clock cleaned tonight by Chicago!

I will not cheer for the White Sox, but I loathe the Red Sox even more, so I will say I hope the White Sox sweep the BoSox.
