[Unofficial 2017 World Series] Houston Astros vs. Los Angeles Dodgers

Springer should NOT be hitting lead off.

 

Springer is a joke. So who’s going to make the big hits tomorrow for the Stros? Verlander I hope you pitched a shut out tomorrow.

 

Based on a handful of ABs? Embarrassing by the so-called "Realist"

 

Springer can’t even put the ball in play. He needs to be hitting 8th, if in the lineup at all.

 

Whatever. Win game 2 and try to not come back to LA.

 

We NEED a ROAD win Please PLEASE let it be tomorrow

 

Yeah, I forgot about that. Rich Hill will start Game 2.

2+ game winning streak incoming

 

Not a surprising result. Would have liked to get this one though. Win tomorrow and let’s get going.

 

I think hes trolling Dallas since he wont be playing.

 

Not overly impressed by the Dodgers but very concerned about certain hitters in the lineup especially the table setter Springer. He is awful right now.

 

Three hits on the road seems to be the norm for the Stros.

 

Nice golden sombrero there George, I'm beginning to get frustrated with him, move him down, sit him, do whatever but he's lost the privilege to bat leadoff that's for sure.

 

2005 all over again?

 

I don't care what his overall playoff numbers have been, Kershaw is a beast. Hitting him was always gonna be difficult.

Unfortunately it only adds to the pressure tomorrow. I'll say, whoever wins tomorrow is gonna win this series.

 

I know Springer provides great defense, but it might be good to give the guy a game off and bring him in late for defense.

 

Move Springer to the bottom of the order: he can't hit anything.

 

I would move Bregman to lead off against these lefties and let Springer clean up behind Correa.

 

I am not going to say the Astros choked but everyone can see the Astros are overmatched. They just got lucky against the Yankees.
I am just happy the Astros made it to the World Series and we get to experience it. The offense cannot perform the same. Springer is now automatic strikeout. Everyone else is near automatic out. At least the World Series tickets will be cheaper when the Astors lose the 1st 3 games. I sincerely do hope we do not have another sweep and we go down as never having won a World Series game.

 

Yeah, I've seen enough of this. We had to move Reddick down and he finally started hitting the ball since we did that, time to move Springer down. He's doing nothing for us up there.

 

We aren't going to win with this offense sputtering the way it is. Yes Kershaw pitched a great game but we still should have done better. Even he said they got away with some bad pitches. Fastball hitting team? Time to ****ing prove it for ****'s sake.
