    This is typical Astros offense. Score a bunch and then stop.

    Pitch count was getting up there, they have to find a way to get Javier stretched out for next year

    Just quoting myself for no reason.

    Great game by Javier tonight. I think he's the Astros best pitcher right now. During the regular season, there was talk he was interested in an extension, but the Astros were not interested right now. I hope that changes (even though he still has four years of team control left).

    Crazy how everyone except for Verlander and McCullers have been nails this series. Two people are responsible for 2 losses.

    Altuve is having the worst hitting stretch of his career it feels like... who would've thought it'd come in the post season after another stellar .300 avg season. Sucks seeing your fave player struggle this much for this long :(, I'm still hoping he comes up huge next couple games to take this series

    A friend here in MN just asked me
    “Is the 5 run lead the most dangerous lead in baseball?”

    This is a low % move but why not Vasquez in the DH spot. Downside is Maldy goes down, that means Vazquez to C but loses the DH.

    Alex Rodriguez thinks so since it's not an even lead...

    He hit well on game 2 and seems to be making good contact. The problem is good contact right to their fielders

    having scored 5 runs in 3 of the last 4 games, is it safe to say the astros offense is turning up? I think so.
