    Everything else being equal, I would rather the wins, rather than losses, come on days before an off day

    Do or die time for the Astros. Take game 3 and the momentum will be shifting. Otherwise it is over.

    Doubt it would be further than 6th, moving Brantley up...maybe to back in the 2 spot?

    Shocked that we are in such a deep hole already. Rangers just knocked us to the mat.

    if there is a game 6, I absolutely cannot see how we can run Framber out there. It is JP France or Hunter Brown time.

    2021 ALCS

    game 1 Framber 2 2/3 ip= 6 hits, 3 BB, 3 runs allowed.

    game 5 Framber 8 ip = 3 hits, 1 BB, 1 run allowed.

    At this point, I think they have to go with the horses that got them here.(That's why they can't bench Tucker either)

    Framber starts game #6 if it gets there.

    I think Brantley will be batting 2nd

    Tucker drops

    And Framber will absolutely still start game 6


    I can still see the astros winning the next 4 in a row. Or losing in 5. Too early to tell

    Bregman now has hit 17 career post season HR and 15 have come off of all star pitchers.

    His last was off of Eovaldi in game 2.

    Scherzer, Ardolis Chapman, Martin Perez, and Will Smith are all former all stars.

    I predict he gets one of them before this series concludes
