    Well if the Stros can't get one then they deserve to lose.

    That reaction from Encarnacion. Too amusing.

    And just gave up 2 runs in game 1 of that series but it was enough for a loss. They smacked him around on Jeter day in 2017 so he hasn't been invincible.

    I know the Astros were pretty disciplined at the plate this year with very low strikeout numbers but please just trust your instincts and swing like you did in 2017 playoffs. Hope they're not overthinking it out there.

    The way this offense has been, 1 run seems insurmountable. Hopefully the Astros can get in a rhythm actually seeing the same pitcher twice.

    Tillman Fertitta has brought bad juju to Minute Maid.

    Someone kick him out!

    This with the Rays series and the first game with the Yanks I've never seen so many fast balls in the zone just being stared at by the Astros. Very disappointing.

    Offense is due. Zach looks good. I bet Boone burns out the bullpen this series

    If the Stros get shutout, big shame on them.

    I understand wanting to get deep into counts so I get it but I would like to see them try and ambush Tanaka a little bit

    Well if they keep on staring at fastballs in the zone it will be.

    Being disciplined at the plate is one thing, but when you face a guy who doesn't walk many like Tanaka you'd better be up there hacking.
