    I believe in Greinke to get the job done. He will do whatever he can to get this ring and he's EXACTLY the type of player we need on this team to help make that happen.

    Greinke will be in survivor mode but hopefully he'll be doing it with a 2-1 series lead.

    Folks are going to talk smack just to talk smack. JV will always be a special guy for me when it comes to Astros history.

    I believe in Greinke also.

    It appears he will get the call in game 4.

    If we lose game 3, short leash.

    If we win game 3, I think he'll pitch with less stress and give us 5 or 6 innings.

    So let's go win game 3.

    Zack will pitch a CG if it means he gets to bat.

    I think Zack will be motivated to go lots of innings just so he can get more at bats and get his stolen base.

    If you’re in the World Series and looking for motivations to pitch well, that’s…. problematic.

    Atlanta forecast…showers likely, mainly after 4pm. Can you say rainout?

    Why no retractable roof ATL?

    Negative, I think ATL is in the clear for the weather, however, I expect it to be windy based on the data I am seeing

    Question on if the game is rained out tonight.

    Game three would be played on Saturday and game four on Sunday and game five on Monday. If game six is necessary would it still be played on Tuesday as scheduled or would they have an off day and push it back to Wednesday?

    7 inning doubleheaders on Saturday with ghost runners starting in the 5th inning. Thanks, Manfred.

    I think they would just push Games 3-5 back a day if needed and have 5 days with games in a row.
