What a night. From utter despair last night to pure joy tonight. It is almost too much. Just think, we got to see history being made tonight. Series is TIED! It is now a best out of three games. Here is what must happen: 1. If Verlander poops in his pants again tomorrow, pull him quickly before the game goes down the tubes. 2. Never play Diaz and/or Mancini again, ever. 3. The glimmer of life from the bats must continue, feels like a break out. 4. Beat them up with our bullpen whenever possible 5. All hands on deck; throw everything at them, there is no tomorrow at this point. Whatever you got, do it now.
I literally cannot believe what I just watched. Unbelievable... Cristian Javier, you are a ****ing legend.
The blueprint is there, attack with the heater up in the zone. Make your pitches, execute the game plan and keep them in the ballpark. Go 'stros!!
I'm sorry but that's gonna backfire. 3 days rest works out in about 1 in 5 times. McCullers is deadly at MMP. He has to start that game. Then y'all gonna be on here screaming at Dusty as to why he made that choice with a fully rested McCullers and his track record at home
Ayyyy Jalen staying true to the H even when in enemy territory, you know the Philly fans gonna be salty at him for that LMAOO
Agreed. They are stuck having to go with LMJ. Javier will probably be available for an inning in relief, but you cannot start him. There is the possible consideration of using Javier as an opener, and then bringing in LMJ for bulk of the early innings.
If this goes 7 and LMJ starts over Javier and gets shelled Dusty might be out of baseball. You definitely start Javier and your ride him as long as he performs. You can try Lance if CJ struggles.
They got home field advantage back but please win tomorrow. Then have 2 shots to win 1 at home. Yeah yeah 2019 but they're not facing Strasburg/Scherzer type pitchers *maybe Wheeler if he gets his velocity back....then again Suarez just shut them down yesterday....but 1 out 2 is doable!
Javier has given up 1 run in 2 months and just no hit the Phillies. If he is fresh, he is pitching game 7.
Game 7 can be pieced together with everyone available except JV and The Framburglar. We have plenty of depth. We don’t need to rely on LMJ. I’d prefer not to see LMJ.
