Tucker and Springer both played in 2019 along with Bergman, Correa, Altuve, Brantley, Yuli and Yordan. Quite the lineup
I guess. I’m not a big baseball fan. It irks me that rich teams and big markets can spend whatever amount of money they want. If the nfl was like the cowboys would have been back to a nfc championship game more recently than 1995. If I owned a team in the dodgers division or was a fan of the team I would have tuned out long ago.
I'll never forgive Hinch for not bringing in Cole in the 7th. I was sitting behind the bullpen and everyone in that section was yelling for Cole. He wanted the ball. That 2019 team was the best Astros team of this entire run. Shame
Well now two of the top 5 payrolls made the WS. If it happens again next year, the owners will have a ton of leverage to lock out the players with the goal of more even salary cap with maxs and mins.
How bout that MF hometown hero George getting it done… fan for life of that guy- ultimate baseball player. Hope he wins another— deserves it more than any of the other players in the LCS and now the WS.
Of course he was. He was pissed after the game and he badly wanted the ball. The whole, "we didnt wanna bring him in mid inning" is such bullshit from Hinch. Cole wouldve shut them out
Even if Hinch would've put Cole in there's no way of knowing how things would have turned out. Remember Cole also gave up FIVE runs in Game one of that series.
