Positives: We made Minter, Matzek and Smith work Luke Jackson had one good outing against us, what are the odds he repeats, especially after we picked up some intel on him? They haven't seen Graveman or Pressly yet Their starting pitching advantage has been diminished Let's even the series, go to ATL split, and then Games 3 and/or 4 are ripe for the taking. There's a reason why it's best of 7.
He can't right now, he's fubar at the plate. Swap him and Yuli in the lineup. So easy, we'll see what Dusty does.
0-4 World Series Game One's Stros have lost most of those series too We'll see the current's final outcome soon enough
To be fair, this team is 0-3 and 1-1 in those series This team is resilient, never forget that, they might not win this series in the end, who knows, but they've come back from much worse than down 1 game.
Braves in 4. Reverse jinx, maybe? Or at this point it really might be Braves in 4. If we lose game 2, we're absolutely ****ed.
He's really a black hole in the lineup. Then again when Bregman, the corpse of Altuve and Mr. It's My Time (it's cute when it works) go 0-12 it's going to be tough to win baseball games.
https://www.mlb.com/news/2-to-0-deficit-baseball-playoff-rallies-c297376582 obvious statement is obvious, but you can't go down 2-0 today.
Holy ***. Look at all of these opposite field hits Altuve had in 2017. I don't why he has opened up his stance so much since then (hitting coach Snitker?) and has totally changed his approach. He needs to watch this video and study his former approach this entire off-season.
Odorizzi needs to be Game 4/5 starter, with Framber getting the other game. He's been our best starter over the last 2 months, and it is time to reward that.
No need to panic. We can get to Fried and Anderson. Then they have a bullpen game with Smyly more then likely starting. Then with Morton out do they go with Fried on three days rest? Just need Urquidy and Garcia to step up, get a good bullpen game (Javier hopefully giving at least 4 strong IP), and for Altuve, Bregman & Correa to get it going!! Need to bounce back tonight and get a W.
Man it seemed like every single little thing went wrong last night. Shaky fielding, bad luck, BAD Framber... Diaz, Alvarez, and Yuli all missed a home run by a combined total of 3 feet, and somehow those resulted in a grand total of 1 hit, 1 walk, and 1 run. Ugh.... Time to regroup and get it going tonight. We really need Altuve, Breggers, and Correa to wake up. Time is now fellas! Let's Go Stros!!!
Mother fvck, it's like the Nats all over again. Why can't we just make things easy on ourselves and go 1995 Rockets and sweep for the ring? Just once. Sorry, I'm sour, tired, and somewhat hungover.
