    John Smoltz is having a struggle with the English language so far on the broadcast.

    Frank Thomas is just bitter that Bagwell was better.

    Home plate ump is on point.

    LMC looks strong early on.

    Astros can't threaten Cleveland if they lose in the ALDS. I do think the Yankees will give them trouble. Right now I'd m prefer to face Boston round 1.

    Pomeranz has the really nice curve working early.

    Yeah. We match up better. Plus, I don't want Judge hitting a home run in the play in wildcard game against Boston to eliminate them and be given the MVP for it.

    Gattis has been roping the ball recently and has nothing to show for it.

    Pretty good contact that inning. I feel good about us scoring some runs.

    Ok its been about 4-5 games but why does Hinch continue to bat Gattis behind Correa? Would much rather see Gurriel or Marwin

    Gattis getting a lot of playing time recently. Hasn't really produced last couple games.

    Keeping McCann fresh (he's had some knee? thing recently) and getting Gattis extra ABs so he's ready to DH instead of Beltran against LHP.

    Encouraging start for McCullers.

    McCullers looking nasty today if he can pitch like this in the playoffs that will be a huge lift for the stros

    25 man is going to be so interesting. Two of McCullers/Morton/McHugh are going to be out of the rotation... can't imagine carrying all three on the roster.

    Not if we stupidly carry guys like Gregerson on the roster.
