    Are they sending out their closer? Hopefully their closer has the 4 out bad juju that Osuna has.

    Grienkie obviously has huge anxiety problems in loud playoff games. No wonder why he has a not trade clause for the Yankees.

    Just not dependable in the postseason.

    Signing Cole is a must.

    Any other time 4 runs would be doable, that damn first inning though

    Yeah , but so are those TB guys . By then we will have seen everyone in their pen too.

    Our offense is gonna have to step up even if Cole is perfect

    Springer just missed, but I smell a 9th inning comeback with the heart of the order coming. Yordan game tying HR in 9th.

    Has he tried ear plugs or beeswax? Too late to experiment now, maybe something to look at in the offseason to the new team he gets traded to. That money is needed to resign Cole.

    Dallas K has been pretty impressive in the playoffs save for his last outing.

    Baseball requires a lot of things going your way to win in the playoffs, but this team has too much talent to underachieve like this. Way too much

    just never see the Astros have fight in this dilapidated s hole of a building. After Harvey when we had to play the rangers in this dump and we could have used a pick me up I think we dropped 2-3 or 3-4.

    But not sure what it is with the rays. We just can’t win a season series against them.


    Come on guys get a priest a couple of candles a bell and some holy water and exercise these demons

    Can you imagine us running 5 or 6 relievers out there and being confident they can hold it together?

    A capable bullpen has its merits.

    Too bad there are no pick sixes in MLB

    I think it's more beneficial to have a deep bullpen than having a great starting rotation in the playoffs.

    Astros line up is really good at timing up starters on their send and third time down the line up. They haven't had that opportunity. Every at bat is a new pitcher. Can't get timing down.
