    Not so sure the Rockets really have a ton of really good young talent but this isn’t really the place to discuss it.

    Didn’t realize they didn’t even have BP in game 4 either.

    Houston has some good history with this scenario.

    The Rockets titles are before my time, but in recent history, 2017 ALCS vs NYY was the exact same!

    Anyone know if there are any significant differences in pitchers starting on a “normal” day after throwing in a game on their bullpen day vs starters on short rest?

    I’m sure the Astros staff knows their pitchers better than me, but i would think Urquidy would be “fresher” than Garcia for game 6 and you get the added bonus of a pitcher on full rest if you get to game 7.

    That's what I would be doing (Urquidy tomorrow and Garcia for gm 7).

    13 of 35, a 35% chance for us to pull this off.

    That's better than two coin flips, lets do this.

    Catchers could have something and transfer it to them. They don’t check catchers as much.

    Bregman has all the tools, has done it before. It is all mental.

    I'm not sure why they wouldn't start Odorizzi - he'll be on full rest since his last outing and is stretched out as a starter to go 4-5 innings if he's on his game. Garcia 100% should be saved for Game 7 - I don't see any logical reason to pitch him on short rest when you still need to win a game 7.

    I love how Devin Brown's reaction is the most iconic part of the entire event.

    You are a very negative person .

    I now remember who was constantly b****ing about Click.

    Yeah, that one move by Dusty is why we are down.:rolleyes:

    Truth hurts and I still think signing Baez/Castro was a bad idea.

    Look back at Dusty's history in past WS.

    And yes that one move possibly could cost the Stros a ring. Hopefully the players can overcome it.

    Your life must suck for you to be so miserable.

    Let's just ignore all the other transactions and focus on Baez/Castro.:rolleyes:

    I have a wonderful life that I'm very thankful to be in the position I'm in. Life's good.

    Graveman 37 pitches
    Maton 29 pitches
    Are either of these 2 available in game 6?
    Maton possibly. Can't see Graveman.
