    there's so much to unpack from today, so i'll just start listing them. tuesday was devastating for oakland, today was twice as devastating for the yankees.  they had just started to play better.

    The boy and I were at the last ALCS clincher - we were walking on air for days after Altuve’s walkoff. Today, the boy is 5,000 miles and 7 hours away, with no way to watch. So we did a video chat, w

  • Enjoy it. Old Altuve, no more Correa means this is the very end of the road for your tainted dynasty.

Our WS experience fixin’ to take control. Once we pop them in the next one, we drive home safely. GO ‘STROS!

Still patiently waiting for Frank Thomas to say something insightful. It's been years now.

How about our wiley  World Series veteran Urquidy…who is in his 3rd year

 

Braves fan earlier today told us he wanted a split so he’d get 3 games in ATL. Let’s close it out on the road !

Get the trick or treating done early.

gotta trophy to watch being raised 

Congrats to everyone on here tonight for making this an enjoyable (and mostly asshole free) evening. Oh, and thanks to the Astros as well! 😁

Did you tell him to be careful for what he wishes for?

2? Atlanta has to win game 3 because they are going to have to have back to back bullpen games in 4 and 5.

If we can jump on Anderson and knock him out of Game 3 early they are going to be in trouble.

He has something like a 6.5 ERA in the first inning and basically fuck all after that.  Got to get the jump on him quick.

Would be the Astros first Game 3 victory in these playoffs if it materializes. 

i guess you could say the same about bernie, but pretty impressive for a "non-power guy".  manny was obviously a home run hitter.

will suck for correa if he goes and takes a big contract from detroit or minnesota or miami and stops moving up postseason stat ladders.

Fuck the Yankees. That is all.

Our bullpen is in about as good a shape as could be reasonably expected after two games. Especially given Framber’s shitshow.

Yankees don’t know how to build a team. They work and focus on buying one. Chemistry comes from building one. Underachieving occurs from mercenary aggregation. Too many individuals. But it is, I suppose, and can’t deny, the next best thing.

Oh, and fuck the Yankees with a half eaten dried up corn cob.

True. But I would be lying if I said I wasn't worried about Luis putting up a shitshow on Friday. Glad that Braves will be pitching bullpen all of Game 4 and 5 - the Astros deserve that break since LMJ can't go. The Astros won't drop three straight in Atlanta. I think the Astros clinch the title in Houston next Tuesday.

I feel the same about Springer but maybe they'll get in a few times.  They almost made it this year.  He's also tied for 10th in WS homeruns where you don't have the "more rounds" bullshit that makes it impossible to compare.

I’m not. the knee injury (and subsequent mechanical tweak) he’s a different pitcher. 
avg 93.3 fastball during regular season. Then:

Garcia threw the five fastest pitches of his career in Game 6; he has thrown the eight fastest pitches of his career all in the postseason (seven in Game 6, one against the Rays last year). The righty averaged just 93.3 mph on his four-seamer during the regular season, but in Game 6, he averaged 96.0. That average fastball velocity was 1.4 mph faster than his highest average in any other outing this season (94.6 mph, April 12). He was amped up.

 

Sure, some was postseason adrenaline. Some was him knowing he wouldn’t be asked to go very deep. But pretty impressive for a guy everyone said “he’s hit his wall for the year. His arm is done.”

If Altuve were a Yankee he would be in the HOF as an active player and he’d have the NY media forever attached to his dong fellating him until it fell off.

Username game is on point.

Sounds kinky.  And probably expensive.

We close this deal out with at least one Garcia win and Strom deserves a cool million handshake on his way to retirement and consulting.

I take it you aren’t a Nugenix believer.

Lots of national guys struggling with Spanish pronunciation of the letter q last night and this morning.

Hey, Pederson!  You like that?  You like that?

I hope fans have rubbed that in his face at every opportunity.  Would be nice to get the whole stadium chanting it.  

Thinking about Bregman's struggles, and the last time he was consistently good. I think it's been since the trash can scandal. Maybe he's just an average, to below average hitter, and he was greatly helped by knowing what pitch was coming. I'm happy to be proved wrong.
