Valentin is struggling right now. But he'll snap out of it and get back to helping this team.

All I gotta say is WOW. E-lo was the f***in man. That was vintage before September 2003 by, Loaiza.

My signature says it all.

Astros win 7-3. I haven't heard anything on, Pettite.

I agree. Especially since he's been on this amazing tear. I hope Maggs is ok though

Oh boy. Looks like Maggs is out tonight. I hope he's ok. Willie is gonna be in center with Rowand in right. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/boxscore?gid=240526104

Loaiza better be on his game tonight. This Texas line-up is no joke.

We've done some damage against this guy since the 1st time we faced him in 2002. I expect the same tonight.

I agree with you. People around here are WAY too hard on, Carlos. Even in a bad year he's gonna hit .275, 25-30 hr's, 90-100 rbi's.

I remember he had 1 good start against us in 2002. We've owned him ever since though.

Valentin is a solid baseball player. Bottomline.

The more I think about it. The more I realize Steve Finley would make perfect sense for this team. Almost too perfect.

Man, I hope there is a good crowd tonight. After this last roadtrip, the team deserves it. I'm goin to the game on, Friday

Unless we plan on trading him, i'm all for Rauch gettin a shot. Time to see what we have in this guy.

Thanks, Cheat

Very nice article. It's gotta suck that his family is so far away from him. I think we sometimes forget the major adjustments guys like Shingo, Ichiro, or players that come from another country have to make when they come to the states. But, i'm in love with the guy. His stuff is straight filthy. He is an asset in the pen. I also think he can become a closer eventually. Props to KW for adding, Shingo

For fantasy purposes. Does anybody know if Willie, is starting tonight?

What the hell is the point of this thread?

Ichiro is a dream. J.D. Drew would be nice. But we have plenty of outfielders at the moment. Mike Cameron? Sure his defense and speed is nice. But his average is way too low. Last thing this team needs is another right handed bat that's hitting .210

Yeah, some of these proposed trades are really off the wall.

Shingo ain't goin anywhere. He's an asset in the pen.

The Cubs interested? The only way I see the Cubs makin a push is if Prior is not expected to come back at all. Or maybe if Wood is out MUCH longer than they hoped.

They're dropping like flies. I wonder how long they'll be able to hold their heads above water?

4.67 era is still too high. He needs to get it atleast under 4. But he has been much better.

I'd give Miguel a B. He's been very solid. I pretty much agree with everything else.
