    Everything in the after show so far has been pitch perfect. This one feels good.

    Altuve’s got a ring. He’s about to have 2+

    Does Alvarez get the DH spot since it's a new series/team? Or Diaz? I would give it to Alvarez but with a short leash. Hinch can't be patient with him since it's the finals.

    I'm sorry for almost blowing it y'all. We were winning before I cut it on for the tying homer. I cut it off and all was right again.

    Jose Altuve is a SAVAGE IN THE BOX.

    94.5 mph... that made it the fastest throw on a 6-3 putout in the statcast era.

    Me too. Strasburg, Scherzer, Sanchez aren't going to be fun, and it's likely that the bullpen will have to save the day. The bully's a lot better with Pressly than without him.

    I still believe in Osuna, and wouldn't have a problem at all seeing him try to save Game 1. Just one of those ABs. His high FB was a skosh high. Normally, those are strikes, when he's got the right amount of snap on his pitches.

    Honestly he’s probably 5’3 — not that it matters but no way he is 5’6. I’ve met him in person and he is short short

    Chapman’s face at the end, that powerless little smile, you could just tell what he was thinking.

    “Damn, Altuve is one great ****ing ball player.”

    Barely, and he recovered beautifully after that. It could gone way way worse...

    Right! He’s got the most saves! It’s against the freakin Yankees. And, it was high time Houston bats started backing up pitching. I feel real good about our bats coming alive for the WS.

    He was good in the TB series. See what's bugging him, and see if it's likely to hamper him vs the Nats. I think he could come back and do well. Urquidy did.

    I must admit I felt bad for him for like 5 whole seconds. Then I was over it!
