Andy Pettitte : The Season Turns Around

Oh Magic 8-ball.. is this the game where Andy turns his season around?  That's good news!  Pettitte through his first 13 starts hasn't been real Pettitte-like.  Currently he's sitting on a 4-7 record with an ERA just over 6.  The highest ERA he's ever had for an entire season is a 4.70 in 99 where he went 14-11 with the Yankees.  A 6.03 is an ERA that gets most pitchers some time in the minors.  The last few season's he's been dealing with injuries, not feeling 100%.  This year he says he feels great, no injury problems and coming off the best season of his career(stat wise).  I didn't expect him to have  another season like last season, but I don't think anyone expected Andy to have a 6+ ERA through the first 13 games. 

Hopefully tonight the tables turn.  Pettitte and the Astros face John Thomson and the Braves.  The Astros and Braves are both sitting at a 29-31 record.  Boy would it be nice to win this 4 game series from them.  A sweep would be even better.  The Astros are currently sitting on back to back wins.. One more win, and you've got what's called a winning streak. 

Go 'Stros!
