Actium Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 While the last Reds-Stros series should have been make or break for the Stros, it wasn't simply because of the NL's terribleness. Now this one might really be make or break. The Stros have been treading the waters of sub-mediocrity for a while now, but are somehow still in it. It's like having a loved one in a coma they will never come out of--you almost want them to die so they can have peace and you can move on, but as long as the heart beats there is the slight hope they shall awaken.

And it looks like the Astros came to play....maybe the reds can dust off their bats to win it and you can come up with some more of those colorful nicknames for your squad....
