Plunk Biggio
Closed Published by lambo@astrocast.net (Lambo and Sketkar) March 30th, 2006 on AstroCastSurfing through other astros sites, I ran across Plunk Biggio. Interesting site, you should check it out.

Playing Manager
Closed Published by lambo@astrocast.net (Lambo and Sketkar) March 27th, 2006 on AstroCastThe 2006 MLB season opens exactly one week from today. Everyone excited?
We thought, we’d play manager and go through what we think will be the pitching rotation, fielding lineup and batting order. This is more relevant now since Jeff Bagwell is on the 15-day DL and Roger Clemens is still making up his […]

World Classic
Closed Published by lambo@astrocast.net (Lambo and Sketkar) March 6th, 2006 on AstroCastThe World Classic is about to start. I have mixed feelings on this subject.
