    It really is amazing, all things considered, that this squad is back in the ALCS. If you think about all they have gone through, everything they have lost, all the **** they’ve had to overcome, it’s really an impressive run.

    Nah, man, I just get a little salty when people freak out like this is the GARM. This is not the GARM, btw, for future reference.

    While facing him would have been sweeter, letting him watch his team lose and go home with no opportunity to have any bearing on the outcome will have to do.

    And, to think this game started out 0 - 3. I wasn't mad for long as I looked up and it was 5 - 3.

    Not ideal but we’ve seen enough for the last 4 year the stros are more than capable of coming back with these core guys. At this point the experience comes heavily into the stros favor now

    While we are cheering for the Astros, I just realized the Astros are the worst-case-of-course-this-would-happen-in-2020 team for everybody else outside Houston

    The Astros are the "2020 can't possibly get any worse" team, lol!

    People out here heated

    What a “vindicating” series win...Liam Hendricks was right. The job isn’t done, but man am I proud to be an Astros fan. After everything this team has been through....the fan vitriol, the slanted and ignorant coverage, the Molly Knights...the offense shutting up all of the haters in *that* manner? My god. Just beautiful.

    Time to take it to NYY/TAM and LAD/ATL. I don’t care who we face. Yeah, we’re going to have to win the next rounds on starting pitching and offense. Our BP got screwed this year. Dusty is working with what he has. We need some baller performances from LMJ, Framber, Urquidy, Javier...and lets ride Correa, Springer, Brantley, Bregman, Altuve, & Tucker into the sunset. What a fearsome lineup. Could you imagine Yordan DHing?

    Anyways, go Stros, go ClutchFans. Time to keep feasting.



    Somebody get the whambulance for Heyman:

    Correa talking Hot sh*t and backing it up is what is missing from the Texans and the Rockets. It's so fun to watch. inject that into my veins.
