    They may but he'd be on 4 days rest for game 1. Why not Gray in game 1 and Severino game 2 on regular rest?

    We have a better offense and better pitching than Yankees. Cleveland pitching is better than ours. The Yankees to me are clearly a weaker team.

    They have a better top of bullpen which is more important in the postseason.

    I like the idea of starting at home, but I honestly don't feel it's a big advantage when a series uses the 2-3-2 format. If the road team steals one of those opening games, you start worrying if the series will even return home.

    There is no question you'd rather face the Yankees. Home field advantage and a weaker opponent. Cleveland, despite this series, is a much tougher matchup for us. The Astros play well in Yankee stadium.

    I'd be pissed if we play the Yanks and lose. The Astros are on another level compared to NY. They have a better BP than we but even then it's not like they're world beaters compared to us. Our SP is far and away better, our offense is far and away better. If they win anything more than Game 4 down 3-0 I'd be disappointed.

    Watching the Indians and seeing their numbers this series, I'm not even that worried about the Indians and that offense outside of that crazy comeback in Game 2. We should, and likely will, run all over who we face. I'd still rather face the Yanks though. **** Judge.

    I just want the game to be close and possibly go into extra innings

    Nope. Yankees blow them out. In a 5-game series, maybe the Yanks worry me. I’m very confident in the Astros in a 7-game series
