His stuff wasn't there and we still couldn't capitalize. Sad... Okay 'Stros time for roadfield advantage! You better hit the guy who hasn't pitched in ages next game.
 
Stranding runners and home field struggles have been the story of our season. It's only right that they continue to be our downfall....But I believe we can take the next couple... Whatever happens I'm more than content. I just wish it wasn't the Rags Haha.

You've been awful this postseason Framber... You were a hero last year but this year you've been off. Though I cant knock him too hard. We don't win the WS without him last year. He had a great PO run and season in 2022.


It's worth pointing out that we were down 0-2 in the 2021 ALCS so it ain't over.

They werent, they won game 1 on I think a Correa home run and lost games 2 and 3.
 
Not giving up like some fans on another message board I post at but basically next game is a must win. They play better on the road so hopefully luck changes for them. Actually they need to take all 3 road games. Taking just 2 out of 3 means they need to win 2 straight at home and winning just 1 at home seems impossible for them.

Yes, that's correct lol. What's worse is, come playoffs, some posters from the Rockets section will come over and give their 2 cents. And it's awful, especially if it's after a bad performance by a player or if the team loses.

Yup. Rockets and Texans posters will flock en masse to the Astros board with their stupid takes and doom posting. Been that way since the team got good again back in 2015

Just popped over to take a look..... Christ ... They need to ban half that damn board lol... Unbearably hard to read .

Go Rangers.....

Fun team, not a single easy out in that lineup

Leody Taveras is coming into his own..hit .300 for a lot of the season before slumping at end, he could be a solid leadoff hitter on a lot of clubs.

Always had a soft spot for them beacuse of Pudge and sharing my hockey teams namne.

May the baseball gods atone you for not pulling Nelson Cruz for Endy Chavez in 2011

Yeah ,the lineup can be a nightmare. I'm particularly envious of how much production they get out of the bottom of their order. It's impressive.

That being said , I've been impressed by how well our pitching has done against it so far... Besides Framber of course.

Javier has an MLB record .040 ERA in his last 3 playoff starts.

Yup has allowed 1 ER or less in all 3... I pray that continues.... The downside to Javier is that he starts to get gassed by the 4th and can usually only go 5 ... It is what it is.

Our offense better show up against a guy who hasn't pitched in months..... When did Scherzer get injured? Was it August?

Line ups





Apparently no team has ever won a LCS matchup after losing the first 2 games at home....Teams that did are 0-21 all time......Well.....That's discouraging lol.

Good for Carter. He has certainly earned that 3 spot. There’s actually a decent article about him on espn believe it or not
 
I love moving Brantley up and moving Tucker down... He needs a wake up call...Anything. Dont mind Dubon in for Chas. I still haven't forgiven him for that awful AB against Leclerc or his overall bat in the playoffs so far.
