    How did JV do against the Mariners when the Astros played the Mariners in their "World Series"?

    I know Springer had to leave the game but man did he even get 1 hit the whole series? or reach base for that matter

    I hope McCullers pitches at home in game 2 and Framber goes in Seattle Game 3. Question is - who’d you rather have pitch on the road - I’d take Framber any day- that’s a tribute to him. Lance is nails at home and more relaxed.

    If Bichette hadn’t gone for the ball, springer could’ve played it on a bounce and probably kept the runs to 1-2 and jays would’ve kept the lead.

    Another AL West team riding high when they won their Wildcard matchup. When they head to the ALDS, they'll be shown why they're 2nd fiddle in the division.

    I'm superstitious and obviously this means nothing but hopefully no karma against us fans. I remember when the 2 Mariners fans were like, I don't care this is my World Series(Mariners home series). Let's make it hell for Houston and Houston proceeds to sweep(I think) the series. Soon after Astros fans proceeded to mock and taunt them.

    I remember absolutely the Stros crushing the A's fans hearts in the playoffs after they thought it could actually be a series not too long ago

    I’m legit kind of nervous about this series. Granted, I’m always a nervous wreck around playoff time, but still…

    For those who are nervous ask yourself this. If thier comeback fell short today and they won in 10 innings in game 3, would you still be nervous about the Mariners? That was two inexperienced teams having thier first real go at the playoffs in a while. It was real cute. But we are as battle tested as someone who fought in both WW2 and The Korean War. Now it's time for us to spank those bottoms blue. (Honestly I am nervous about our 6-9 hitters)

    Am I the only one who thinks Cleveland has a shot to make the Yankees sweat? They haven't faced them since well before the ALB and Cleveland is a bunch on young guys who came on late in the year.

    I think they will give the Yankees a run for their money.

    Advantage Astros

    I hope we start the game at 12 noon on Tuesday, they are a west coast team. They are still sleeping in their body.

    It's baseball. If you're not nervous, you're not alive. Astros in 3.
