    No I was talking about the WC game since you wrote this. Apparently you were talking if NY was WC and Astros won the division.

    And as the Wild Card, they wouldn't get the home field advantage over us no matter what.

    I believe Hinch spoke about keeping bullpen guys in a bullpen mindset.

    Glad to see Altuve in the lineup. That HBP looked really bad.

    He said after the game yesterday that he mostly wears one but sometimes he forgets. Said he forgot yesterday, I bet he remembers from here on out.

    I hope the Discomframberlator brings it today, I want to see that breaking ball at work.

    Scared of Pujols, leadoff walks piss everyone off.

    Well Framber has been impressive so far in both games he’s been in

    That is indeed impressive, since he's only pitched in one game. ;)

    And no reason to **** with the bullpen when you have Devo's roster spot sitting there for Framber or Cionel.

    Blum kept talking about Simmons potentially dropping the Altuve pop up on purpose. Wasn't the infield fly rule called?

    I don't think it was high enough to be a popup?

    Also: Kemp has been figured out, throw him strikes, don't let him walk, and he's just another guy who can't really hurt you.

    Yeah...I didn't see or hear anything on the broadcast so it may have been too low. Interestingly...there is no 'height' requirement in the rule book.
