I'm beginning to think the Astros do steal signs using cameras at home. No one cared during the regular season and thus their home record was amazing. Now it's the ALCS and there is more scrutiny they probably don't want to risk it. Maybe the Astros just suck at hitting when they can't read signs.
Greinke hasn't been great but not awful tonight but the Astros offense needs to wake up. Can't rely on Verlander and Cole to pitch perfect games every start.
I'd do it just to throw him off if he's going next inning. I hope he's not coming out in the 7th, I'd rather take my chances against their bullpen at this point.
With the offense we had, they should have won in 1998 and 2019. I guess we'll be a one and done champion.
This is one dead ass crowd...from the start. And, it's just me I guess but Greinke giving up 3 runs(2 HR) is not anything special. That said...the offense just can't seem to get going.
Just win the Verlander and cole games and it is a 4-3 series win. Then trade Zach. Dude has a TERRIBLE playoff record. How could we not see that before we traded for him. And again. Thanks Wade for turning into a flaccid mushroom.
Tanaka is just throwing strikes out there and our guys are watching them go by. And then swinging at horrible 2 strike pitches.
We needed 7 games to win both the ALCS and WS. Why are people all doom and gloom chickensh!t little sky is falling after 6 innings of the first game?
Can't see why they'd pull him, with the ass kicking he's been doing so far. Dude looks like Maddux out there.
