    His ALCS career stats are horrendous.

    I thought that the whole playoffs and not once did it happen.

    Yup and who knows if he wants to return. And it would also be risky to sign him coming off of TJS. Unless he's willing to come back on a discount.

    Great playoff run. It was a fun series. If I have to lose, I’ll lose to Charlie Morton. He should have never left the team.

    If we lose Springer or Correa, then the chemistry of this team changes in a way that it just won't be nearly the same. Those guys are the offensive identity of the team...aside from Altuve. I can't stand to lose either one of them.

    These guys are freakin champs man. They should not at all be disappointed to how this season went. They
    And our ROY. That’s almost 1/3 of our lineup that matters.

    One of the best things about the playoffs is we've seen that Framber Valdez is developing into a great starter. Yesterday they said his stats were Cole level.

    I am wondering what the 2021 season will look like. 162 games? Covid shortened? 0 games?

    The first game, Rays catcher hit a single. They won 2-1.

    I’m disappointed but still proud of this team. Remember it was less than three weeks ago when people were talking about how this team had no joy, Altuve looked done and this team just wanted the season to end. Did these guys show those doubters!

    This series we beat ourselves more than Tampa truly beat us. Maybe the exception being tonight with Morton's lights out pitching.

    That’s life though. All things change. This has been the greatest Astro team to ever watch from 15-20. It’s just that hard to win a WS. We got one and 17 will always be an amazing year. 18,19,20... all outstanding seasons.
    Now we see what the organization can do and how they put the pieces together.

    Top 3 Priorities this offseason....
    1. Sign George Springer
    2. Trade Zack Greinke for prospects
    3. Add veteran help to the bullpen.

    CF Springer
    2B Altuve
    DH Alvarez
    SS Correa
    RF Tucker
    3B Bregman
    1B Gurriel
    LF Free Agent
    C Maldy I Guess

    Biggest roster mistake Luhnow ever made. Still unexplainable.

    Well, and JD Martinez. That was bad too.

    It's too bad we don't have a guy like Morton. Wait.....
