    You can’t even count that on one hand with this regime. You must be talking about the Biggio Bagwell era

    Unexpected starters like this tend to lead to some strange results.

    Really hope we jump on him.

    I don’t know about y’all, but I’m going to enjoy the hell out of this game tonight because the Astros may never get back to the World Series again

    Disappointed....? Jomboy usually has some good content, but thats just straight harnessing all his inner chi and not wanting it to explode in fear of him hurting his own teammates and all the fans behind the dugout.

    I really don’t understand the Alvarez in the outfield experiment— he barely played this year and had issues. So Hinch obviously wants him for his bat but again, it’s not like he’s been hitting the cover off the ball or been critical to any wins in the series.

    I think a solid defense behind Cole is key — just feels like a risk we don’t need to take. Course I hope he kicks butt but this is a head scratcher for me. Plus the bottom of the order has been decent the last two games — not the black hole it was in Houston

    We're losing some defense with Alvarez in left field, but hopefully he makes up for it with his bat

    Stros got to put some runs on the board in the first inning to keep putting pressure on the Nationals.
