    Is Pujols the slowest person alive?

    Allowing hard contact on every pitch might not be a winning strategy.

    Smart move by Hinch putting Beltran back in the lineup for today's game. Dude hasn't gotten enough playing time recently and he's one of our best players.

    Altuve is a trip when he signals runners to not advance during loose balls in the dirt.... and there's no runners on base.

    JV looking solid. This dude needs to be our Game 1 starter no question. I would much rather have him possibly pitch 3 games in a 7 game series than Keuchel.

    Verlander vs. Pujols. I don't care how old each of them is, it never gets old watching these two do battle.

    The shift worked right there. Take note, so we never again say it never works.

    Doesn't mean much, but good to get outside perspective....

    Angels' radio broadcaster said Altuve is easily MVP, even with an average September.

    Interesting. I had to look it up to see if she is an Astros fan. She is now I guess because she is dating Justin Verlander's younger brother, Ben.
