[Official ALDS] Astros vs. Royals

I knew it was too good to be true for the Astros to coast to a win and clinch this series when they were up 6-2... It was like the beginning of a horror flick when everything seems all peachy.

 

Will Harris and his fat ass can eat a bag of dicks.

 

McHugh, Fiers, Sipp and Gregerson. Only guys that should be allowed to pitch in Game 5.

 

Agreed

And the defense, we make two plays that inning and we go bottom 8 up 2 still

 

In relief, probably. But let's hope they're not that desperate. It would have to be an extra innings game for Dallas to see the mound.

 

tough loss.. looking forward to rockets!!

 

We have to get rid of half our pen and get a legit closer next year. Yes, I realize everyone already knows this. I am so pissed we blew that lead like that. **** YOU Mike Harris.

Hinch should have pulled his ass after the first 2 hits though.

 

Yep. Just another choke in the long legacy of Houston sports choke jobs. Only the rockets seem immune.

 

Damn. Go ahead and change it to Crushed City...

 

McHugh better be ready to pitch a complete game in KC.

 

Yeah...it's hardly ever easy with Houston teams in the playoffs

 

We're still alive, but as a Houston fan, I default losing.

 

Yeah, that was a tough bounce, but Correa's gotta come up with it. Worst case scenario, we're probably looking at 6-5 heading into the bottom of the 8th. If he hadn't had a monster day at the plate, he'd be hearing about that error right now.

Games like these tell you what the team is made of. Royals are a great team, and that's what the play-offs are all about. Tough loss, but they did win Game 1 in KC.

 

3-6 with a 3.62 ERA....is that good ?

 

Yes it is…You didn't know it was going to be 4 hits until it was 4 hits.

 

silly hot take. not sure who the **** he is but baiting people to talk to him and say bills/oilers is cute.

 

Go extreme! Pitch Keuchel and McHugh the entire game until it is over! lol

 

Our bullpen sucks, not sure what else Hinch could have done. Perez blows a game, you hear "SIPP HARRIS GREGERSON ONLY!" Harris loses a game it's "WHERE WAS PEREZ?" Players need to execute, it's not just on the coach.

Harris should have been pulled earlier, this is true, but for whom? Gregerson? He just pitched 1 1/3 the day before, and didn't exactly put the Royals down 1-2-3. Fact is our bullpen is dreadful. While I still think we can win on Wednesday, we are going to have to rely heavily on our starters if we make it to the ALCS, which isn't typically a route to winning.
