    Somehow happy and sad that we won't get to see Springer.

    Jay's are weaker and it hurts seeing him in another color. But I was looking forward to his deserved ovations.

    The thing I most want to see in this series is whether Greinke can put up a really high quality start Sunday. The season depends on him getting back to ace (or near-ace) level and back-to-back 4 IP, 3+ run starts haven't been reassuring.

    Hopefully we can tack on another series win. Looking forward to Springer’s video homage and to see/hear his reception.

    Toronto has been hot... I'll be very happy with a 2-1 series win.

    please no Springer dingers. That would break my heart if he hit a home run off of us in our park.

    He's hurt with a quad issue so no chance of that this series.

    I don't like anyone getting hurt, but it's a perfect answer. We can welcome him back and appreciate his time here and not have to root against him actively or see him roaming CF in a different uniform.

    Sucks Springer isn't able to play in his first return to Houston. He deserves to soak in the ovations that are coming

    Please let the Verlander news be a contract extension at the veteran minimum

    press conference is real. Speculation is just speculation. Personally I don’t see him retiring unless something has gone really wrong in his rehab - he wants to burnish the HOF credentials.

    Most likely a general update on his rehab. Could even be some new endorsement.

    We’ll find out in an hour.
