The Cubs beat the Cards yet again. Why do they play their best baseball when they're already out of contention? (and you must admit, they are basically out of contention. They have to beat 6 other teams, and I don't think anyone can catch Houston the way they're playing now.)

 

Also, I just looked at the standings, and the CLEVELAND INDIANS are only 2.5 games out of the AL wild card. When in the world did this happen?

Houston's not THAT hot. Oswalt, Clemens, and Pettitte do what's expected of them, but the latter two in the rotation are rookies with 6+ ERAs. Plus the offense outside of Bidge (who only seems to produce in MMP), Berkman, and Ensberg are really inconsistent and inexperienced.

 

Of course as a Astro fan I want them to get Wild Card, but I just think they're extremely vulnerable.

Wow, Kerry Wood has been nasty in relief. The Astros hitters today just had no chance against him. I really hope that he can start next year. However, if he still can't throw over 50 pitches, he needs to be the closer. I like Dempster, and he's a good closer, but Wood is just f*ckin dominating.

I agree with everything there. He has been lights out in all of his relief apearances so far. And if he can't start then why waste him on relief? I think Kerry Wood would be a perfect closer. And the though of Demspter as an 8th inning guy isn't bad either.

I suppose it wasn't a terrible trade. I mean, they have no shot this year and Lawton was going to be an FA anyways, might as well get something for him instead of nothing. And if they want to sign him again (which I hope they do) they still have the exact same chance after this year.

The AL Wildcard is turning out to be very interesting. Right now New York and Oakland are tied and Cleveland is 0.5 games back. Being an Indians fan, I want to see this young team make it to the playoffs just for experience sake.
