    I know this is the playoffs and things change but I feel pretty good about Garcia holding this team in check

    Frank Thomas is recommending pitching around Correa and Altuve.

    That’s why you have Brantley, Alvarez, Bregman, Gurriel and Tucker. You can’t pitch around the first seven hitters in the Astros’ lineup.

    I agree, and even thought it was A rod that made the comment of “It’s simple, just have to throw the pitch here and here” cracks me up. Man baseball is so simple apparently.

    What a lame segment about the Astros being the villians. No mention of the Red Sox cheating, of course. Yawn.

    So.... Fox pregame just did a segment on the Astros accepting their villain status. Ironically, they showed Tom Brady as the example of a hero. Isn't he a 'convicted' cheater?

    They were pretty clear about 5 "villains" remaining from the 2017 team. No mention of the sixth "villain" that is coaching the Red Sox.

    Not confident in Garcia

    He allowed hard contact his entire last start, so this first inning will be telling
