I got nothing -- the Astros seem to be exhibiting a level of resilience I did not expect to see in them. Lots of chicken left on this bone. And they are still the Astros.

Second time Smoltz tries to make excuses for Castro. Forget it, John. After a ball bounces enough times, the weird spins are gone. He just sucks.
I've got $10 that says he's playing for the Isotopes by the All Star break next season.
He's the new Chris Davis. All or nothing. He's not going to continue to draw walks at this pace.
Is that the same guy who butchered a pop up into a ground rule double last night?
We’re spoiled, although our left fielder isn’t as good as our right and center fielders.
It's almost like they got in the dugout after the top of the 7th and thought, "wow, we are going to win this game, and we have our two best pitchers ready to go to win the series, we may actually win this thing." And then it all went to shit.
Or, actually, that may have just been me that thought that.

Devenski was insanely good during the regular season, but sort of melted down against the Sox. He's now officially useless.
The guys in Houston's bullpen that Hinch trusts is a very short list. This could be another long save attempt for Giles.

So both of their left fielders suck then; good to know for future reference.
