The best words to describe the Astros this season are:  DANGEROUS & EXPERIENCED!!   They will play to the very last out and never give up.....because they believe in themselves.  They have been here too many times not to believe.  And their fans believe also.  Sometimes that in itself is enough.  They got here because they have a talented team that knows how to win, regardless of anything else......end of story.

I don't care what happened to the Astros during the season with their poor record at home.....Minute Maid is and will be a daunting place for any opponent to play.  IMHO the Astros have a good group of starters and enough pop  thruout the lineup to win games as long as they keep it close.  Their bullpen seems to be dependable also.  Overall, I'd say they should win at least one of the two games to start this series at Minute Maid......but maybe both.  They whacked the D-backs, and maybe have already found a new gear for these playoffs.  Now they have rested for almost a week......probably a good thing for an experienced team like the Astros.
