CHICAGO - This past week, the Houston Astros went 4-2 with dominate
victories over the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Chiacgo Cubs, who both by
chance lead the NL Central. With the wins, they moved one place over the
last place Cincinnati Reds, after holding this last place position for
nearly 3 weeks.
Some points that need to be made are, Bert Walsh received his second victory,
and is now 2-2 on the year with a 5.40 ERA. Next year it is near to confrimed
that Kevin Millwood will be called up from LOW to play professional
ball. With this in mind Bert Walsh and Chris Seelbach are both showing the
managers what they got now while they still have a chance. Also, Franchise
Player, Zeke Cain may be called down to AAA by the end of this year due to
his lack of performance. He will try to regain confidence while in Triple A.
