What say you?

I say that anything is possible.

Answer 1

Surely anything is possible, especially with both teams winning more so lately, and not playing The Cubs.

Houston has done it before, by turning it up late and making a run.

Brewers have been known to being up and down. Will be quite interesting, this series, for The Astros if able to beat Milwaukee will be just 4.5 back, with over 30 games left on their schedule. Or, lose more ground even if they win a game.

Difference is Brewers have the pitching, more so, while both teams, though the edge definitely goes to Milwaukee, with offense.  With Carlos Lee out, we know Berkman will do his thing, but Tejada, Loretta, Pence, Wigginton need to step it up, and asking these guys to do so, might be asking for too much.

Answer 2

I say that Cooper should continue! He is trying to get his team to win some games so he is challenging them to do so! I think that this motivation will get them to actually sweep the Brew Crew! I really think it will happen. But we'll see!

Answer 3

I don't know if it will happen but i give the Stros all the credit in the world for not giving up when everyone else has pretty much written the off.

Answer 4

I hope they do!

Answer 5

I say no since CC is going to pitch tonight.That guy is unstoppable!

Answer 6

I hope they do

Answer 7

Cooper and GM Wade appear to be the only two people in baseball who do not yet realize or acknowledge that the Astros are out of 2008 contention.

Answer 8

It is possible but will be very hard to do/.. good motivation by the manager against his former team.
