Assume the position, David.

Absurd.

Absurd.

For some reason, as Blaine Boyer was closing the door in the ninth inning this song came to mind:

 

I don't think it really has any connection to the Astros, or baseball in general, although the melancholy lyrics and deliberate rhythms do sort of parallel our team's slide towards an irrelevant finish of the 2009 season.

So uh...

are they ever planning to blow this thing up? Unfortunately though, El Caballo’s contract is still an albatross, Oswalt’s probably lost some value and even Berkman’s contract is iffy.

Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
