Wandy
After three rough starts, Wandy managed to put something together his last time out against the Cubs. We'll see if Quintero or Pudge catches Wandy tonight - with Pudge's imminent record-breaking game on tap.

Kevin Millwood
Millwood is enjoying one of those seasons that would pretty easily qualify as an "anomaly." This is his 4th season with the Rangers. He's posted ERAs of 4.52, 5.16, and 5.07. ERA this year? 2.72. It's not a contract year. Does it just take three seasons to figure out how to pitch in Arlington?

There is one other factor that must be taken into account: I will be in attendance at tonight's game.
Here are the stats:
In Silver Boot Series games that I have been at in Arlington the Astros currently have a 1-3 record with a -26 point differential. That's right. I was at the 18-3 drubbing in '05 as well as the 16-8 beatdown last year.
So, if you have Rangers on your fantasy team, start em tonight and thank me later.
Take some pictures!
Answer: No- no one figures out how to pitch in Arlington.
Millwood's ERA is probably still so low because it's just now getting hot in Arlington (and the heat always ends up affecting the Rangers starters)
And their Defense is much improved this year. And he's in a little better shape according Nolan Ryan which is allowing him to pitch more innings.
I'll be there tomorrow night.
