    Very important to note stassi has Cole feeling comfortable. Maldonado is such a terrible batter he shouldnt be used in the playoffs as anything other than a late inning defensive replacement. You need a lineup that flows , the SPs are good enough to pitch to Stassi and Gattis.

    Maldonado is a better hitter than stassi.

    Might be a controversial take, but this is more fun than last night.

    Eschenfelder: "Astros fans have been waiting for a breakout night like this, and it was worth the wait."

    *looks at standings*

    No, Kevin. It wasn't. Need a different backup for Todd.

    Let me guess, you're part of the Giles has no blown saves camp? Watch the games, plate approach, ability to locate and get on base. Maybe your fantasy stats tell you something else, but they're wrong. Stassi is a better hitter and it's not even close.

    Last time the Stros had a breakout game... on Aug 5, they lost 6 of the next 8.

    Tyler White can be a 4 WAR guy next season at 1B.

    Hope is still alive! Oops, Harris is pitching; no lead is safe.

    I stopped in Biloxi this afternoon and put down a few hundred dollars on the Astros to win the Championship... I like to think that had something to do with tonight’s win.

    Odds weren’t great though at 7/2.

    Also took a $20 flyer on Oakland cuse they were 20/1
