    Like that Lance is starting tomorrow but I would keep him on a short leash and keep Peacock ready to go incase Lance starts to get wild

    Lance has been having control issues lately, getting chased out of games even before the 5th. Let's hope he has some good stuff tomorrow and the bullpen shows up. And also the astros bats. Good call by Hinch not sending DK on short rest.

    I know Lance has been unreliable recently BUT the kid is a fierce competitor and I believe he will rise to the occasion.

    Now, if our bats don’t wake up against Gray then I’m going to be super worried. Astros bats seem to be doing everything they didn’t do in regular season: swing at ball 4; swing at pitches well below strike zone; not swing at the few mistakes down the middle; swing way too big; and seemingly not looking to go opposite Field.

    Again, don’t know if it’s pressing or what but I need this team to relax their collective sphincters and just play ball like they did during regular season.

    5 runs in 3 games. Maybe the offense will decide to show up at some point? Our lineup looks like a complete joke right now.

    He was telling frazier to go right and keep doing it. Go sit in the dugout with them Frank and be the hitting coach. Bagwell is better than ya btw. Just saying.

    I don't mind going with Lance. If there was ever a game you could bet on him finding his form again, it would be in a pivotal playoff game.

    The only problem I have with it is that I think Lance would be your Game 7 starter if you can't go with Keuchel or Verlander.

    Game 7 will be McHugh if there is a Game 7 because that means McCullers screwed up tomorrow.

    The good thing is that New York offence still in a funk. They did not hit well at all today.
