    Doesn't even matter. Fans overreact a ton no matter the round. The year they won was full of overreactions too. I just used the first round to illustrate how silly it gets, that the Rockets losing 2-0 up to go 2-1 and people still start shaking like they were ever in trouble of losing those series.

    Seems like every JV-Cole start is a must win.

    Over-relying on those guys because the offense overly sucks.

    It's one game, which isn't even over yet. Still have 5 outs left. And look, a runner's actually made it on.

    Let's see what happens. Let tomorrow deal with tomorrow.

    What’s with the Yanks pitchers checking the inside of their hats?

    Offenses go into weird mini slumps. That doesn't just apply to the regular season. It's the same game. Same rules apply. Just is unfortunate it's happening rn

    ****ing give it up.

    It has nothing to do with not having heart.

    You said the same thing in 2017 numerous times and they won the WS.

    You said the same thing against the Rays last series.

    You are basically Uncle Ruckus.

    Give it up and go back to the Texans board and suck off McNair, O’Brien and Clay Walker.

    Ya know how the Astros had one of the easiest schedules in the majors in the second half? I don't think that did them any favors. Yordan wasn't facing Rays and Yankees-level pitching for most of his time on the team. The team was able to win scoring 1-3 runs because they had good-to-phenomenal starting pitching facing low-power offenses. One of the guys on FS1 (I think it was ARod) said something a couple days like "When you don't really any competition for months, it can be a shock when you suddenly do in the playoffs."

    Correa and his 400 OPS doesn’t need to be starting

    Been wondering that ever since Tanaka started at his hat's sweat band like it was Kate Upton coming out of the pool, and threw a slider which broke a foot.

    AJ doesn't seem to care; I shouldn't either.

    At the game.

    This sh** has been pathetic.

    Greinke only giving up 3 is acceptable the offense is just garbage.

    He was batting .926 ops over the regular season.

    He definitely needed time to get going because ya he's lost.
