    It’s really cool that the guy we traded for is going to start game 7 of the WS.

    will be a great day if the the ump calls the low strike

    Astros opened @ -150 Early East coast money takes it down to -125 - -130. Now back up to -140 - -145 and rising.

    Drinking games for today.

    1) Drink everytime Soto's name is mentioned, or his age.

    2) Everytime you hear "Technically that's the rule but..."

    3) Drink when they talk about Altuve’s stature.

    I agree although Tucker has been awful himself. That said, at least I always have a small feeling of hope when he comes up to the plate...I’ve started just treating Reddick like the pitcher spot.

    Really nervous about their chances tonight. I know they can win, but my gut is telling me to prepare for another loss.

    Here's to hoping the bats wake up and swing on fastballs and not off speed stuff in the dirt, and for a quality start from Greinke.

    I’m sure he was given in BP it’s cool to swing at every pitch and they’re usually not off speed pitches 6 inches outside.

    We went from plucky upstarts to "**** I'm tired of these assholes" in 3 years. I love it.
