[Official] Astros vs. Yankees ALCS

Looks like a twisted ankle

 

Now we know judge is gonna hit a bomb. Gr8

 

Springer day to day with leg discomfort which ends up being 664564564843909 centuries.

 

It’s on the scouting report.

 

Your right Yankees fans are never fickle

 

This is it boys. The heart of their lineup versus our best hitters. Must win game. 8th inning. Alcs versus the Yanks.

Lets pray that we kick some ass. This is the season most likely.

Fkin post season baseball has given me white hairs.

 

Brantley's timing is off. Only takes one hit to get him going again.

 

Hamstring for springer?

 

The way he was running down the line, looks more like the hamstring

 

That's why he started in right. Already hurting.

 

Is he still in?
Game cast says he’s in center

 

I pray not. An ankle twist he can play on, but not a hammy.

 

You'd think after being embarrassingly shut out they'd come out with a vengeance, but instead they came out with a whimper infront of their home crowd... what a garbage offensive show so far

Size/Build
Tucker is listed at 6’4″ and 190 pounds, but I do think that’s probably as much as 15 pounds light now. Tucker has a long, athletic frame that could easily hold 210-225 pounds without sacrificing effective athleticism to be a very good defender. Tucker has no pubic hair.

Hitting
Contact (60) – While a ridiculous comparison to put on any player, there are people before the draft (and even since!) who have mentioned Ted Williams when discussing Tucker. Some of that is his physicality and stance, but a lot of that is due to the path and method of his swing, which is very pure and true.

Tucker does use a larger bat, and I noted that he would have some games where he really handled premium velocity and breaking stuff just fine, and other games where it didn’t do so well, but in listening to the 2080 podcast on the Astros farm system (Defensive Indifference is the name of the podcast, highly suggested as a listen!), they put into words what I saw in describing Tucker’s developing physical power handling the larger bat with inconsistency throughout the year.

That should smooth as he fills out more and grows more comfortable with his added musculature on his frame, and the contact could even flash a double plus as he has consistency in the handling of the bat in that excellent swing path.

 

Springer still in, twisted ankle maybe.

 

Toughest inning

 

Watching the game on ESPN ($&@&ing family occasion, that doesn't like sports), and I ask you all: how many Astro ABs have these guys started at meatballs right in the centre of the window?! Seems like nearly a dozen.

Frustrating to watch.

 

HARRIS IS ABOUT TO BLOW THIS!!

 

Whew.... springer ok
