Fun fact for whatever it's worth: Brantley has owned Scherzer. Over 44 ABs: .341 .367 .636 1.004 eta: nobody else on either team has faced the oppo pitcher much, like more that 15 or so ABs. Rendon has hit Cole, and Reddick has hit Scherzer.
In some very, very sad parts of the country they actually do consider Taco Bell Mexican food. I feel like those people would be better off dead.
Man I would love to see Alvarez hit one all the way up to the train tracks tonight. Go Astros!!! Take it Back!
Devo’s trend was 5 OK appearances at the end of a terrible season. I hope if he does pitch he does well, but the only scenario he should pitch is in a blow out to eat some innings. If that’s the reason he’s there I think Miley can go longer and gives you a lefty. I don’t think either of them should actually be on the roster though.
He did just pick the Astros in 7. Thomas said the same. Papi said Nats in 7. I don't think this is going to be anywhere near as easy a series as the odds would indicate. But I also don't think it's going to 7.
Oh, my. One of this year's ALDS umps, Eric Cooper, passed away on Sunday at the age of 52. Blood clot following knee surgery. Sad. Prayers for his family.
