    Their bullpen still sucks. The Orioles let Chapman off the ropes yesterday after he walked the first two batters on like 9 pitches that weren’t even clos to strikes.

    Looked at JV’s playoff stats and they’re great unless it’s the WS. I stand corrected from yesterday.

    Framber….follow JV. He gets out of jams. Stay focused and pitch your ass off.

    Yes, I didn't understand the "about to close out" comment. Not today.

    Used 5 pitchers. Walk city. Recipe for runs.

    I thought I heard the league was going to give the Astros discretion on such matters a month or so ago, but perhaps that was just for The World Series?

    This is the best result so far for this game... Big lead for Texas and Montgomery taking a beating and can't even get through 5.

    We need to win this series. Can’t have Rangers there without us.

    Astros are acting as if they made the decision to open it based on fan requests. Dusty might have gotten the memo wrong.

    Framber I think has a 4 era in ALDS, a sterling 1.82 or so in ALCS, and a 6. Something era in the WS. Though he pitched very well last year.

    Why is MLB determining if roof is open or closed, that should be up to Astros? This home field advantage

    Apologies if it's already been addressed, but can anyone attest to the length of the lines to enter the Juice Box yesterday?

    Thanks, and GO 'STROS!

    I went last year during the World Series (an hour before the game) and pretty much walked right in. I'd expect the divisional round to be no worse than the same. Also depends on when you plan to arrive

    MLB and not the individual teams run the postseason (start times, etc...), it's been this way for a long time.

    Shows how strong our division is. Seattle was all dressed up with no place to go.
