1 game out of first after sweeping the Cards. Who would have thought that after the slow start, they would be in the thick of things.

Meh... the Rangers are good this year too so I have no room to dog them.

I actually watched them last night, bandwagon starting to get full.
Cardinals made a big mistake, could of had the inning ending double play, but decided to get the runner at home.Welcome to the Pasture of Pain.

Have to say, did not see this coming from the Astros this year...they looked pretty much awful for the first three months of the season, and I kept waiting for the wheels to fall off...who knows where they could end up now?

Yep. I'd like to see Rangers/Astros WS.
On another note, I do believe the Rangers swept the Red Sox.

I don't know if they can maintain the momentum. They are one of the oldest teams in the major leagues. The good thing about that is that they have been there before and should have the experience edge over most other teams. On the other hand, older players are subject to injury of the most surprising kinds. Berkman and ValVerde both have (and had) torn calf muscles. What the hay is that?
