    Nothing new about it, the unwashed masses just learned what it is a couple of years ago.

    Speaking of Carter, the last 4 players the Yankees have acquired after they led their league in HR

    Babe Ruth
    Larry Johnny Mize
    Alex Rodriguez
    Chris Carter

    One of these things is not like the others....

    Last year, a Yankee just set the all-time single-season record for reaching base via catchers interference...

    I know, I mentioned it in the Reddick game.

    Keuchel needs to get his **** back together.

    Considering you will lie about anything to make a point... yeah, I'm the one with dementia.

    Thanks for clearing that up.

    No problem.

    I'll take 6 from Keuchel... not perfect, but Yankees were seeming to catch up to his stuff the more he elevates it.

    Devo for 1-2 should bridge the gap to whoever needs to pitch the 9th.

    3 straight Ks is sure as hell one way to do it.

    His last 3 post-seasons have featured games where point-shaving has come to mind... and that's never happened before with any other player (let alone a local player), at any other point of all the years of watching the NBA.

    Just wanted to get that out there... it would be obvious and lost in the meltdown cess-pool the GARM is.

    Anyways, back to the Astros...

    Nah. I think the Game 5 loss is just in his head at this point, and he's playing scared. And the rest of the team isn't remotely helping him by missing open shots and playing piss poor defense.

    Regardless, I never had championship aspirations for this Rockets team, as much as I wanted to believe I did. This Astros team, however... In a few months, I'm hoping they're going to help us forget what a disappointment this Rockets-Spurs series was.

    That's actually just as concerning... and at least with point-shaving, its intentional.
