    The "damn Astros need to win at some point" thread
    I've had them on the RL the past few days, and they're 3-for-3.

    Today, I'll back them at +162/-110 RL. They'll beat Zimm. Really, they will. I'm not joking.

    Right? Who's with me?

    Zimmerman shoulder? Last questionable. The bet here is Harrell and FF. GL

          They should win today. With that being said there are better games on the board

            Harrell is their "ace." Zimm has struggled at MMP and vs. the Astros in his career. He struggled in his last start as well.

            It's now or never.

              Saloon this shit




              Nah im playing...i like the rls on them more, cant trust them to actually win outright. Under 7.5 is good, i like astros TT under but 3 is too steep.

                      Seems like a great spot to take the home dog even if it is the Astros

                          I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing for Stros backers... He's hitless in the series but if he gets on base somehow he scores. If you were ever going to bet on the Astros now would be the time.I just don't know if i can do it... They have both been so good to me... Fading the Stros-playing Nats. I feel like it's a form of cheating. i already took the Under. I got a little bit more time to think about it.

                                  I'm starting to think this team's going to finish 36-126.

                                    At this point I wouldn't rule it out.

                                          It is so tough to pull the trigger on any Astros bet, and has been for the last 3 years.

                                            Zimmermann out of the game, maybe that will wake Houston up.

                                              f the astros, they don't bunt or steal or move runners over or sacrifice or anything, two lead off doubles wasted in this game. zimmerman was dealing though.

                                                You might be right. No way they win 60 games this year with this lineup:

                                                M.Gonzalez - 2 hr 9 rbi
                                                S.Pearce - 13 hr 70 rbi .240
                                                J.Maxwell - 21 hr 63 rbi .225
                                                B.Wallace - 11 hr 50 rbi .255
                                                J. Martinez - 17 hr 89 rbi .250
                                                S.Moore - 12 hr 41 rbi .221

                                                Those are their CAREER numbers! I left out Altuve because he actually is decent, and their catcher chris synder because he's a veteran with some pop.

                                                I will never bet them again this season.

                                                  Might be profitable to bet the RL against them the rest of the year.

                                                        How bad you you feel for Brad Mills? Staining his career surrounded by losers, who never had a chance.

                                                        Houston is incredibly horrific. Next year they may be the first team to play in the AL w/o a DH.
