    We still have 2 games at home. Astros will return focused and the fans will carry the fans to the WS.

    Seen it. 1998. Amazing offense. Neutered. Do or do not. There is no try.

    Hitters are guessing wrong, a lot. When they do put bat to ball, it is more often than not a weak grounder. The Yankees have figured out that you should just not throw that many FBs to this lineup. Hitters need to start sitting on offspeed.

    If some of you fairy tale hope wishers dont have a shred of doubt in you at this moment, then you just jumped on the bandwagon in 2015.

    Maybe. The Astros could do just enough to eek out wins at MMP. But right now, it looks like they're mentally defeated.

    Yeah this is definitely mental what we're witnessing. Being mentally tough is a big part of having the "it" factor.

    Astros are different for me. Too connected to my family and my city. Huge part of me. If this team ever wins one I have trips to the cemetery planned. No other franchise has me like that.

    Offspeed and nibbling.

    They are way to anxious at the plate. Yankees aren't throwing strikes to our hitters and will continue to not do it as long as our lineup chases the junk.
