i don't agree with the post season practice of yanking a starter who is doing well. especially when you are up 4.

Had no idea Gary Pettis was 3rd base coach. Really good to see him.

This was what I was hoping for, the best from each side.

that comeback was brutal

Oh, it was so satisfying wasn’t it. Man, not better than banging some hot, unsatisfied, dirty talking milf who randomly picks you and says she only wants to have sex for the next 10 hours and wants no commitments whatsoever after that 10 hours, but boyee that was damn close.

Houston's analytics team is great, if there's any team who has ever studied what pitchers have done given the exact same rest situations & the pitch count number range it all broke down in it's Houston. May not apply to Morton per se, but he's no spring chicken either

We'll see what happens, but someone at Sports Illustrated is probably feeling pretty good about themselves...

This was the cover on June 30, 2014:

I don't watch that many games but the Alex Bregman-to-Brian McCann throw and tag was the best defensive play I've ever seen. does that make sense?

Verlander is 9-0 with the Astros. May be the best late pickup ever. He needs to win one to cement his legacy.

Yeah, sucks I missed that game. After a concert in C-Bus Tuesday night and working on my truck all day Wednesday on my day off - my ass was beat. I made it to about the 3rd or 4th inning.

Just watched the highlights. Amazing. That is playoff baseball.
