Henry is more like a wild pitch pitcher, FP.

Mark Rypien, Doug Williams.

Not to derail the HRod argument but Grossman makes those two look like Tom Brady.

Dude was completely lost against Rodriguez. The velocity had him out of his comfort zone.

We're actually going to end up winning this game. Or rather the Astros are going to end up losing this one.

I'm stunned they didn't go with Beck but my opinion of Grossman is a bit more open minded than some.     ;)

If you want to talk hitting, Marrero is already, technically, a better hitter than either Desmond or Espinosa.

Marrero is probably a better hitter than 90% of middle infielders in the majors.

It made sense to me. Beck is going tobstruggle. He is, no way around it. You can't start him and bench him and expect him to keep his confidence.

I like it because it jeans that Sexy Rexy will return to KSK

You thought that was good H-Rod? I know they didn't score but it was mainly because Martinez seemed terrified of Rodriguez' velocity and gave away any shot at scoring the runner from 3B.

Williams and Rypien were both pretty good. If Jason Campbell had been able to throw the long pass like Rypien...
