Sent this to my BFF who is a Rangers fan and is one of those people who hates Bregman because he think's he's an arrogant douche. No response yet.
They haven't been there much recently. It's expected...just like all these Swifties coming out asking what is football.
We essentially won the wild card series by skipping it all together. Today was a playoff game that we dominated.
Winning 5 out of 6 must-win road games against two quality opponents is much more of an accomplishment than winning a wild card series…. But “I guess we’ll never know…” Astros have a 6 year ALDS streak on the line… which is even more improbable if you look at the randomness that is these short series (could have easily lost in 2019… or last year).
Here's one thing that separates us from every other AL playoff team (from mlb network) tonight. Projected lineup with career postseason games. Altuve 92 games Bregman 86 Yordan 47 Tucker 54 Abreu 7 Brantley 54 Chas 21 Pena 13 Maldy 54 Playoff experience.
Considering how bad we have played at home all year, does anyone think it woulda been better to be the 6th seed?
Winning 2 of 3 in Tampa did not sound like an inviting proposition given the alternative. IIRC, Stros haven't had all that much fun in that idiot stadium.
Yeah, I don't hate Dusty surprisingly. I don't care for him as a manager at all though. That being said, let's see if we can get PostSeason Dusty again.
