    Forgive me if this has already been asked. I've been looking for any sort of videos/articles about the astros/predictions and all I seem to find is stuff about the phillies, yankees, or what color shoes they like to wear. Am I just looking in the wrong places...or...?

    Monday was post championship series stuff and the WS doesn’t start until Friday.. Tuesday was always probably going to be the slowest day for WS coverage. It’ll probably pick up more the closer we get with predictions/match up analysis.

    Tony Kornheiser said it best - It is criminal that the World Series is the same timing as NFL Games.

    Mike Wilbon did the cash fingers

    Unless the Yankees won and then it would be wall to wall and non stop.

    I've seen a number of profiles on the Astros and Phillies on MLB TV as well as ESPN. THere was a front page story on Mattress Mack on the ESPN website yesterday.

    CBS, Sports Illustrated and other sites have predictions and stories.

    It was.
    Although I don’t think postseason track record means all that much for most hitters. I’ve seen too many 1st timers destroy the ball. Look what just happened to Altuve. It’s all about who’s hot at the time and seeing the ball well.

    The Astros will need to be patient at the plate and barrel up the mistakes. Force them to throw strikes. Get into that pen.

    What does this mean? The World Series is avoiding Sundays and Thursday. Except for Monday, they are doing it on the non-NFL days.

    I have seen and heard more coverage about Judge's imminent departure from New York than about the World Series. But Yankee tears are delicious.
