It feels like these guys are starting to peak again...at just the right time. I'm trying hard to not get overstoked.
But Giles won't pitch for a week Few local squads have ever opened a series like this. Only other candidates I'm thinking are '95 Finals, First Half of that football game, and Luv Ya stomped NE. The fact we're beating pitchers we've struggled against is extra nice and could bode well later this playoffs. Edwin could be Sonics 1st Round equivalent.
Under the radar move that has paid big dividends so far in playoffs. He's even more important now that Encarnacion might be out for rest of DS.
Hey everyone, I don't want to blow everyone's bubble. I love the Astros but I see many people planning and talking playing the Indians. I hope Hinch shows everyone the videos of what happens when a Houston team is ahead already planning for the next round. Remember 93 Oilers versus Buffalo, they were already planning their trip to the next city. Remember the one series in NBA playoffs where T-Mac and Yao were up 2-0 against the Mavericks, everyone was talking sweep and they lost 4 straight. Remember this past season when the Rockets blew out the Spurs in game 1 of the playoffs and people were planning a 5 game series win for the Rockets? I am going to hope that the Astros think of this game as a must win situation.
