    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.

This game is fucking frustrating as shit

Iglesias sucks so we should be able to get at least 1 off him

Well nevermind if we are just gonna swing at a bunch of junk

Yuli almost saved the day
Andddd then does that

Yuli is so much fun to watch play baseball right now

 

Bloopers aren't as fun when it's my team.

This was a bad loss. Got to laugh Dusty bitching about the lack of productive outs on a night when his team gets 0 in a 1 run loss. Like Dusty, you are the manager, you can do something about it.

Carlos Correa must hate money.

Maybe the Astros 6yr/$120mm offer wasn’t so low ball after all.

Carlos Correa must hate money.
Wonder if there would be demand for him as a rental for the rest of the year.

The Mets will likely be in the market for a SS, maybe we can get their young C prospect Alvarez.

I would rather have him for one more playoff run when he goes beast mode.

I mean- y’all know if Yuli doesn’t run there they just throw Correa out at first instead, right?  I actually like him running in the sense of it’s a routine play otherwise- maybe us doing something odd or dumb will scramble the fielders brain for a minute and cause an error or something’s stupid to happen.

The game was lost in the 1st when after having 2nd and 3rd with no outs and already 1 run in, the Astros scored 0 more. Or the inning where Altuve hits a lead off double and doesn't move. I've seen that inning way too many times.

 

Baseball is no longer a team sport. It is a sport of 9 guys that play together, but every guy is out to get theirs over team.

I don’t think that’s fair, honestly. The balls are being thrown so hard with so much break that it’s just hard to put together innings and rallies. The league OPS is under 700 right now. 1/2 of the MLB teams are hitting 220. Shits just tough man. 

we've been to the alcs four straight seasons.  in each of those seasons, we had some losses that were fucking brutal and i thought would come back to bite us in the ass.

The old announcers' cliche about it being a good feeling for the starting pitcher to bat in the 1st doesn't really apply to Shohei.

I get that, and I agree. Hitting today is much harder because the depth of elite velocity and spin rates is much bigger than it was 10-15 years ago. So it makes sense that being able to move runners 90 feet is now at a premium. This team has been awful at this simple concept for many years, and Dusty mentioned he was struggling with the dearth of manufactured runs.

Walsh has slid in nicely as being a new pain in the ass

Disagree. That was a slow hit chopper that’s a bang bang play at first at worst. And at best (for the Astros), gets by the 1st baseman after a hurried throw and Yuli ends up scoring from 2nd

Punk ass bitch tryin to run on machete

Fun little pitchers' duel going.  Game is at the halfway point in 1:09 which is nice after last night.  Now maybe score some runs?

Ted!!  Left on left oppo.

I think the odds on that are pretty similar to the odds of Yuli doing something unexpected short circuiting his brain that I was taking about. It just didn’t matter. We were losing either way 99/100

Next year it's going to be just Altuve and Bregman in the HEB commercials.

Damnit.  After escaping last inning, I was thinking Lance might be able to finish off the CG shutout.

Huh they moved Ohtani to RF to keep his bat in.  I liked it better when they treated him with kid gloves.

Someone might want to think about paying Brantley to hit
