Yup. He be picking, choosing, and bandwagoning instead of pledging loyalty to a city like pure fans do. Ill bet real new york sports fans who are all about new york laugh about all the fake fans they get.
If we are going to win then it's needs to be the astros offense show. We ain't going to get verlander gems tommorow. I'm guessing we will start morton, then go to lance, then devo, then peacock, then giles. That's my guess. Either way it'll be a lot of pitchers might need to win an 8-7 type of ball game. The offense woke up and it's very doable. LETS GO
For many folks being positive is just a lot more fun. If you're wrong, it's more fun being wrong believing in your team, than doubting them. Obviously, some people are negative Nancys. They enjoy being negative. That's a big kick for them and they feel good saying they are just being realists. Each person should do whatever they think is more fun. I'm on the positive side. But that's me.
Shame on anyone who gets kicks from being negative against their squad. Seems they are hoping for doom. If negative things happen, all I do is say it did. And I will gladly eat crow if my "negative" predictions are wrong. I'm strong and unbiased like that
Astros can't win. Haven't you guys heard. Cici's buffet does not lose games following a N.Y loss. EVER! His gut generates extra movement on the ball. Basic Physics. :but that's why you have to play the game:
I think bregman gets moved up for reddick. I'd keep everything else the same. I'd be ok with Beltran being the D.H. something has got to give for the most expensive coach in the majors
I really wouldn't count on scoring a lot of runs. Sabathia is going to be on a very short leash. Robertson, Green, Bettances, Kahnle, Warren and Chapman all are available. The Astros need to get a few runs early and hope Morton or McCullers goes on a roll and can get us late in the game. Hinch was dumb and let Giles throw 25 pitches so he is maybe good for one inning and that means maybe an inning for Peacock but we will likely have to get an inning out of Devo or Musgrove.
I was at a restaurant in Salt Lake City last night. Said "let's go Astros" to a guy wearing a Yankees cap. Turns out he didn't even know who the Yankees were playing against or whether they were in the playoffs at all. Then I get on Facebook, and a friend of mine in South Africa was wearing a Yankees hat while hiking with his wife. He probably couldn't name 2 other American baseball teams. Yankee hats are just a fashion accessory.
Hinch wont move Springer out of the leadoff spot even though ive felt all year he would be better further down in the lineup. That said, he has shown flexibility at the #2 and latter in the lineup.
