Who We Got
San Francisco: 0-0
On the Road: 0-0
Houston: 0-0
At home: 0-0
Starting Pitchers
Tim Lincecum, 0-0, 0.00 ERA
Roy Oswalt, 0-0, 0.00 ERA
Why the Astros Will Lose
Because they're facing Tim Lincecum, reigning Cy Young winner, and the self-same pitcher who has held the current Astros lineup to a .129/.162/.143 line in 70 ABs (9x70, 26K:3BB).
Or because Roy Oswalt has allowed a slash line against current Giants of .323/.365/.476 (53x164, 24K:10BB)
Why the Astros Will Win
Because Roy handles business on Opening Day, not allowing more than three ER in an Opening Day assignment since 2005, and throwing 6+ IP in six of his last seven OD starts.
This section will get better as the season goes on. I promise.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
