    Philly might be tougher than that. My prediction is 6.

    Why change it now. Hope he bats .000000004 and we sweep!
    Altuve's aura alone is worth a WaR of 8. (sources, trust me breh)

    I think last night woke Altuve up. After that close play at first the next at bat he looked more dialed in.

    What this team has shown though is that if Altuve, Tucker and even Alvarez are cold they can still win. It's a lot tougher but the pitching is solid. The biggest worry to me is if one of the starters really stumble while the offense is cold. Even so this team can heat up when needed as game 1 against Seattle and last night showed.

    If the Stros lose or the series goes 7, add another log to the fire of BS history

    Is this some kind of reverse jinx or are you really a Phillie fan?
