    Maybe the Marwin from the last 3 years.

    2017 Marwin scoffs at such a comparison.

    Not worried at all. Trading for Verlander aligned all the stars for me.

    I don't mind anyone having superstitions or believing in jinxes and all--to each their own. It's just tiresome for that to be the cause of any loss or failure. And for it to be attributed to the entire city, and 75 years of sports history, etc. I mean, if "wah wahh, Houston sports can't ever win!" is the answer to everything, I'm pretty sure everyone should be 0-82/0-16/0-162/etc.

    They have to be confident after taking down the Indians. One big game can send all that hope right down the drain.

    They just came back from down 0-2, including a soul-crushing loss in game 2. I'm not sure they are going to lose hope until the last out, unfortunately.

    I thought maybe...they'd talk about the Astros after the twenty minute Tanaka segment...but apparently it's going to a Judge segment.

    2017 - Highest % of pitches out of the zone (min 1500 pitches)

    Wade Miley (BAL) - 60.0
    Dallas Keuchel (HOU) - 57.5
    Blake Snell (TAM) - 57.0
    Chris Tillman BAL) - 56.9
    Trevor Hill (KC) - 56.3

    Unusual for a good pitcher having a rate that high.
