The sports gods bent us over again. This could be b2b seasons where the team that eliminates us doesn't make the playoffs the following season. Teams getting their miracle run against us, taking our championships, while our homes need to flood for us to win. Just brutal, man.
I had company during the last several games and I couldn't post like I wanted to. Needless to say, the outcome has me depressed. I don't have the energy right now to get into what happened. The umps, the bullpen moves, and so on. Maybe later. :-(
Anthony Rendon is a free agent. Lives in Houston, parents in Houston, played at Lamar High School and went to Rice. Favorite baseball team growing up? Houston Astros. I think there’s a good chance he’s an Astro next year. Carlos Correa wants to be a Yankee so it’s time to make that trade and facilitate a pitching prospect in return.
Should have let more balls through then. I thought when Correa finally snuck one past it would be the turning point we needed. Even in choosing MVP they screwed Houston out of it
I don't think the Nats have a fanbase or do they? I checked nats twitter before game 7 and that **** was dead, noboby was posting ****. Stros twitter on the other hand, tweets after tweets. This lost hurts even more now.
LA has money, the Lakers, beaches, and players always wanting to play there (see Cole). Houston has half its population cheering for the Cowboys and Titans.
Trading cheaper club-controlled players with arbitration years left... and signing high priced free agents that have less good years ahead of them (than average years)... is exactly how you close title contention windows.
2017 ALCS MVP. Without him, it's Yankees vs Dodgers in the 2017 WS. Assuming all else remains constant that means we're still a ringless franchise. My my how quickly people can forget some things. True, he wasn't his usual self this postseason, but it's not his fault our hitters kept stranding runners on base.
The feeling after the loss is a lot like how I felt when NC State beat UH in the semi finals of the NCAA Tournament. I felt like the best team lost, but on further reflection, the best team always wins.
