My Spanish isn't the best, but I was watching the Spanish language broadcast instead of boring Joe Buck
I did the same exact thing no lie. Only difference was I was watching from my backyard patio so right after I pissed in the bushes I turned around and then BOOOOM
I'm seriously considering watching Game 3 in Spanish now. Or flipping between the two channels. For Comcast/Xfinity Houstonians, Fox Desportes is channel 559.
That's about what I was thinking, except I'd swap Brantley and Yuli. Big Papi said we need to get Correa some protection. Yuli's been hitting the ball hard, just right at people. He'd force you to think about pitching to Correa. If we're moving Brantley down (and I think we should), put him in front of our rookie that's there for RBIs. Or let him drive in Yuli on a single after Yuli gets a double. Whatever, just put him in the middle of the Cuban sandwich.
Pretty much the Stros have only had one truly stress free easy game which was game 5 against the Rays and even that one was stressful going in considering it was win or go home.
I was following the box score and game pbp on Yahoo. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, it said “Correa walked it off”. I about soiled myself. Then, I hopped over to the game stream to watch it and the celebration. Yeehaw!
Lol yep, even the Cowboys lost to the Jets as a bonus. Probably the best day in Houston sports so far this year. Hopefully later this October it can be surpassed.
Yeah that makes more sense. Dropping from 2nd to 6th is big demotion but Brantley is a professional......who hasn't been hitting well.
I am really worried about that bullpen with pressley just not being a good pitcher as of late and McHugh not being available. that basically takes out 2 of our top 4 bullpen guys just have to hope grienke has 1 completely dominant game in him
Well, they got their split here, but...... We emptied their pen. Correa is not completely healthy, but close enough! Springer's finally showed up to the party. Cole going next... Gotta like it.
With the way James and Smith pitched I am less concerned. Pressly can not push off with his knee without causing pain. He will get another shot.
Nah, you have to break up the left handed bats, and for all intents and purposes the Yankees are treating Yuli as a left handed bat due to his reverse splits. I hope AJ goes with the following lineup in Game 3: Springer R Brantley L Altuve R Bregman R Yuli R (but treated as a L) Correa R Alvarez L Maldonado R Reddick L
You have to like the spot we are in. Would love to be 0-2, of course, to guarantee a trip back to Minute Maid but we are going there with Cole pitching and their bullpen, vaunted bullpen, looked very hittable. Hopefully, the law of averages starts hitting some of our guys and we explode. With how this team is pitching, if the bats wake up...watch out.
