Not So FAST!

The Astros hold off the A's to avoid the sweep and maintain first place in the division. Yesterday ended on quite a positive note for the defending champs. With the potential for outright panic staring them in the face, they rose to the occasion.

They avoided a sweep in Oakland, Verlander got his 200th career victory, and Altuve's return is no more than a few days away. There will be more bumps in the road for certain. We may look back at this day though as the day this team made it known that they were not going to give anything away this season, it is goin to have to be taken away from them.

 We move on to Seattle where the same will remain the best will be tested. The Mariners are the third stud in this three horse race for the division. They also faired pretty well against the Astros in the last series we played them.

 The testing of the #Neversettle mantra is full effect. Lets lock in and enjoy Astro fans!
