    Looks like we're playing the Red Sox in the first round and facing Chris Sale game 1

    This series was primed for a classic Houston let down. Coming off a winning streak after the high of obtaining Verlander, playing against a team that is both terrible and a consistent punching bag for the Astros. What a setup.

    I actually don't even understand why hinch took peacock out.

    He was dealing. So what if he gave up a couple of runs? Keep him in and trust your bats.

    Hey AJ. Confirmed. Michael Feliz is as useful as a stale bucket of popcorn.

    You'll have to forgive @MadMax, he's become a just a little jaded, not without reason.

    Is the glass half full, is the glass half empty? I dunno, I just refill the sumbitch.

    There is nothing in their history to suggest they will ever do anything other than disappoint you. I wish that weren't true. When they finally win a title I'll be crying in shock or dead.

    And I'm not going anywhere. This is my team. I'm stuck. Joy.

    This is honestly the most ****ed up, out-of-nowhere, total bizarro world (coming off the past 2 series), bottom of the roller coaster, did I mention ****ed up?, series that I can think of.

    Thank Jobu manana is a new day.

    Don't ever say that, because it's just insulting bullshit.

    I know and agree. Just jabbing the other guy. He picks and chooses who he references like that.

    Astros currently have one of best HOU squads (maybe the best considering youth) I can remember. Hopefully something real nice comes to fruition.
