This is going to be a good game

I looked at the lineups, I think this will be a tough one. Why is Towles not starting?

[Showtime100]

He got a little nicked up either last game or the one before. He'll be catching tomorrow I believe.

[Astros4Life]

the astros moved to the .500 mark with the sweep of the brewers this weekend, any thoughts on what you have seen thus far, albeit its may 5th but if they keep playing like they have, it should be fun, one problem though is they are a streaky team,they lose a few then win a few then lose a few...they need more long win streaks like the six gamer they had 2 weeks ago
