    I think we all knew the bats would be dead in the playoffs. We were hoping not, but we all knew they probably would be listless offensively.

    I mean, you can't get by on pitching only, we need our hitters to step the hell up!

    I wonder if Gurriel at 1B would help...

    ;)

    Hunter Brown having Tiger Tattoo sealed his fate.

    A comeback win would be good for the ball clubs energy anyway. So let's just do it.

    Luck is part of the game... you know it.

    Tigers have gotten most if it.

    Now get the last word.

    Michael Brantley, George Springer, Yuli Gurriel, Carlos Correa.

    Astros don't have those Hitters and Defenders.

    Astros dynasty is over and we're witnessing it live.

    If it weren't for the cheating scandal, I'd be completely satisfied but that whole thing tainted the good early years.

    There must be some kind of malaise surrounding Houston, if you assemble this talent on either coast you win at least 4 rings in that 7 year window.

    1 run seeming like a Mountain. The Hitters Altuve, Bregman having panic look in their press conference. The Dugout is stressed.

    The Run was over Last Year, when the Rangers came back 3-2. Winning at Houston.
