Are we finally over the Yuli break-up?  No way he comes through like Abreu has this post-season.

How about Brantley for $12M?

Guess who hasn't watched the last two games and won't be watching any more in 2023. 

Radio and yahoo gamecast is fine.

He would have cost nearly nothing, and he would be taking Singleton's spot on the roster. It also may have resulted in a win or two more while Abreu was out. He's still a good first baseman, and a decent hitter, a great insurance policy to have over a guy who hits less than Maldy.

Delete this. No more talk about stats or JV or games 5 or anything til Gametime 

Agreed.

Just win one game. Then focus on winning the next.

Don't take out your gold glove middle infielder in a playoff game.

Montgomery is due a bad game. I’m having nightmare flashback to the nationals series though. I love hate baseball.

I get it. The longer an unlikely pattern goes, the more surprised you are to see if continue. And dominating the way we have in Arlington is for sure an unlikely pattern.

That said...every game is a new beginning. Montgomery did a number on us last time, but he's not Carlton or Koufax. No reason we can't hit him and win again 

What kind of limp wristed lineup is Dusty going to post today? He always gimps it out for Verlander.

On October 20 in 1882 Bela Lugosi was born in Hungary. The Astros are what, right now? They are hungry. October is spooky, Bela Lugosi played Dracula. The Astros are scary good and they want blood.
 

2023-1882=141

141 is a sign of good fortune when it comes to family life. This Astros team is a family. 
 

Go Stros!

I’m sure it will be the exact same as yesterday.

 

that’s the easiest. It scored 10 runs. They have a lefty (so no Brantley) and you know dubon and Maldy will be starting 

 

…all of which means, we probably see the return of JVs personal 1st baseman

Any manager who changes the lineup the day after scoring 10 runs in a playoff game should never be allowed in a dugout again.

Over half the board is cheering dubon in the 2 hole.  There won't be anything dumber than that.  Well except death, taxes, and maldy.

October 20th in Astros History

2022 - Framber Valdez and the Houston bullpen lock down the Yankees, 3-2, in Game 2 of the ALCS for a 2-0 series lead. Alex Bregman's 3-run homer provides all of the Astros' offense.
2021 - Framber Valdez spins eight innings of three-hit ball, leading the Astros to a 9-1 thumping of the Red Sox at Fenway in the critical Game 5 of the ALCS Yordan Alvarez smacks a homer and a double. Yuli Gurriel drives in three.
2017 - Justin Verlander hurls seven innings of shutout ball as Houston ties the ALCS at 3-games each with a 7-1 victory over the Yankees. Jose Altuve homers (of course) and drives in 3 to lead the offense.
2004 - Jeff Bagwell ties the Cardinals, 4-4, with a clutch 2-out single in the 9th of Game 6 of the NLCS.
1999 - Ken Caminiti falls out of a deer stand while hunting near Laredo. He fractured 3 vertebrae.

Man, hadn't thought about that guy in quite awhile. Sad story.

What about Jeff Kent breaking his arm while “washing his truck”?

I’m scared. Wasn’t the last 2 games. Very scared now. 
Scared we are gonna whip their asses 4 games in a row or what?

No he is due to no hit this lineup.... We are fucked with Valdez letting them clinch in G6

2018 Boston celebrates in Houston
2019 Washington celebrates in Houston
2021 Atlanta celebrates in Houston

We tend to like throwing parties for the other teams..... This one will be the worst

The reverse jinx stuff is so tired.

Regardless of what happens today, JP France needs to be ready to go at a moments notice on Sunday.  I don't want headcase Framber blowing this for us.  For instance, in his last start, he would have been pulled after throwing the ball away on that ground ball.  So, basically, JP would warm up alongside Framber instilling all the confidence in him no doubt.

tbf satisfying to beat South Oklahoma when they suck, too

Now isn’t the time to be a pussy, get your head straight 

whichever 9 we start, they’re going to wreck it today. I’m confident in everyone but Singelton 

Some of y'all need to get your minds right and get ready for our guys to kick their guys in their pussies again.

Posting here since I know it’s getting more eyeballs than the Vegas thread. Especially @henrygandorf - I’m landing in Vegas shortly and need a place to watch the Stros. I’m thinking Circa Sportsbook but open to recommendations. We are at the Palazzo (hopefully not in THAT suite, if you know you know) - traffic is so terrible that going off strip to Circa is just as fast as going to Beer Park or to other spots on the Strip.

Mainly looking for the place where I won’t fuck up a W. 

Doesn’t Circa cost $200 a person to sit in the stadium seating. Pass. If it’s nice weather, Beer Park at Paris would be a great choice.

circa is sick, but the best watching areas are out by the pool, so if you're not looking to be by the pool, i would just watch at the venetian/palazzo sportsbook.  i haven't been over there in a minute, so i'm not sure what other good bars are there with tvs, but most hotels have added them (after decades with zero tvs outside of books).

if you're looking to make any other trouble there, text me later.

Oh I didn’t realize there was a charge for sitting in them. Thanks.

 

WFAA says "Roof closed." Did anyone catch Dusty chirping yesterday about an agreement to keep them closed for the entire series?

If you are in the Woodlands/Spring area, Steorner and Hughley are broadcasting from Sawyer Park Ice House, starting at 2.
