    There is actually a scenario where the Astros could face Keuchel in the ALDS, Cole in the ALCS and then Morton in the World Series this year.

    Crazy!

    Charlie Morton has become the Robert Horry of Major League Baseball.

    Unreal clutchness.

    Cole, on the other hand, had a chance to close the door on the Blue Jays and failed miserably.

    16-8 3.22 era is not what $40 million should buy you.

    I think Robbie Ray will beat the Yankees tomorrow and then sweep the Orioles. That means the Yankees need to beat the Rays this weekend 2 out of 3 to even be tied with the Blue Jays. The Rays are going to make sure that the Yankees don't make it.

    Blue Jays vs Red Sox play in game.

    There is also a scenario where the Astros don't make the playoffs.

    Cole started sucking when they changed the foreign substance rule on the ball mid-season

    Don't want to face any ex-Astros. Former team members have been killing us this year.

    That was only briefly. I am a little surprised at well he's done as the sticky substance made his fastball rise an extra inch or so.

    i mean your post did specifically say killing us this year. If I'm not mistaken the playoffs didn't start this year yet
