    Caratina hits better batting left handed. Then to follow it up with Dubon and JaKKKKe.Brutal.

    Theyre done today. No life in these guys at all.

    Yordan is clearly hurting too. **** **** ****

    In this first handful of innings of this game we already are seeing the flaws of the Astros being exploited.

    The top of half of the Astros line up is great - the back half of the line up is garbage, and good pitching can exploit that.

    Cole was nothing like Valdez has been. Go and check the stats. Hell he has a career era under 3 in the playoffs and he was better with us than he has been with the Yankees.

    Might as well just keep Framber out there to keep the bullpen fresh for the rest of the series.......

    If we make it out the wild card, Framber never needs to start a Game 1 again

    I used not even care who the opposing pitcher was when our lineup had Altuve, Correa, Bregman, Yordan, Yuli, Brantley. It just didn’t matter.

    I’d take 2019 Gerrit Cole as my ace any day.

    no, lets be honest here: the Astros decided to trot out some washed up bums in Jose Abreu and Rafael Montero thinking because we paid them good money they would produce good results.
    A. Keep Bagwell away from the FO...

    what did we learn?

    Framber failed them. Have to give up 1 max early in the game. Not sure if this teams has it to win the next 2, but I hope so
