Every time I see David Newhan starting for the Astros, I die a little inside. Perhaps Coop is giving him a shot because of the struggles of Bronson Arroyo?? Either way, our guys should fare better tonight at home than they did against the filthy Mike Pelfrey yesterday in Queens. It's almost time for September call ups!!! Which means that Dave Borkowski has a shot to solidify himself as the Mike Gallo of the current squad.
