    So a pitch that was outside the home plate umpire's strike zone all night and is usually called a ball by all umpires was called a ball and that's a big story. That's almost as dumb as pretending

Well, Xander has a better OPS and WAR in 3 of the last 4 seasons than Correa… but ok. (Xander is definitely hard-core slumping as of late, though.)

I do like Correa as a player and think the Astros were pretty shitty to lowball him like that, but his days at MMP are probably coming to an end.

Xander career slash .290/.353/.459

Correa career slash .277/.356/.481

The War numbers are skewed because of the amount of games CC has missed due to injury. But durability is a check mark in Bogaerts column. Both are great players but I’ll take Carlos due to his superior defense and playoff heroics.

Yeah it's pretty clear that Correa is the better and more valuable overall player. Correa is maybe a bit better at the plate than XB, it's admittedly close, but Correa is easily the better defensive ss and he's proven himself in the biggest moments over and over and over again.

Bogaerts has a career WAR of 29.1 over 9 seasons vs Correa's 34.1 over 7 seasons.

I like Bogarts. 

For some reason I like Devers a lot, probably from his rookie season and the series he had against Houston in the POs.  Just seems like he's having fun out there.

Boston doesn't really have any villain players I dislike.  Would love for that not to change this series( i.e. Astros win!)

DON'T YOU DARE INSULT PANCHO'S!!!

Love MMP overall, but the refusal to open the roof on a day like today is a crime against baseball.

Odorizzi taking his sweet-ass time…

Home. had to got judge a chili contest. Amazing how fast you can make a decision.

Saw the Chelsea game. Hate the texas defense. Fuck Yes JDM. All caught up?

JD FKN MARTENIES IS THE MOST Badd asss player everz

Looks like they’re not leaving guys on base today…

Sooo…if we keep them under 36 runs that’s a positive for game 3, no?

Good lord, Darwinzon. He should not pitch to right-handed hitters for the rest of this series.

Or lefties, either for that matter.

We got a series, folks. Onto Boston for three. The crowds at Fenway have been electric lately, I imagine Monday will be no exception.

Hasn’t been officially announced, but it sounds like E-Rod will start game 3 and Pivetta game 4.

Feels like a huge momentum shift after yesterday, but the Astros’ lineup is still scary good.

Schwarber sure pulled a Correa on that one.

nah, we called him up from the Big 12. Quoting about the Ump

Does this umpire call strikes?

He's had a good strike zone so far, at least according to the box they have on tv.

Not from what I seen, missed several in this inning in crucial spots. And Joe Buck fucking sucks.

good zone my ass, just missed 2 in a row, leading to another walk.

Nice baseball weather. Here we go! 

And they don’t even need to close the roof!

Astros fans bitching about umpiring? Ha, good one.

(Rather than their franchise 2B who can’t turn a double play, which would’ve stopped a grand slam… ouch.)

Good Lord this is a shellacking. Just checked the score - on my way home from dinner.

Astros bats can get hot. Just like how E Rod is pitching. Considering he almost died last year I am impressed. 

Ruh roh. Those bats were gonna wake up eventually.

Nah, this thread is the non-Astros people. Go look at the Astros thread. We are just kind gentlemen on this one.

The Astros fans prefer to stay in their own thread.  Everyone else also prefers that.
