    I did make it home safely. Thank you for everyone’s concern.

    This series though might cost me business and a relationship

    i like your thinking. My daughter started Kindergarten and 2 months later CFM pitched us a fine game 7 to gut punch the Dodgers. She is now in middle school as we go back to another LCS

    And of course Minnesota local news starts off with
    “There’s no crying in baseball but Houston was a problem”

    To the credit of a lot of Minnesota sportscasters they aren’t talking about cheating but gave a lot of credit to Brantley, Jose Abreu and the Stros team.

    There is a lot of talk about when the Brantley was on Cleveland. One announcer even said any young player who wants to know how
    To be a professional watch Michael Brantley.

    Yep, I say this all the time and I know many others here and not here have experienced this but my old man bled orange and blue and he passed at 70 in 2016 and obviously NEVER got to see anything even CLOSE to this as a longtime HST sports fan so I don’t take it for granted and I appreciate it every waking moment when I’m tuned in. It just doesn’t happen with ANY franchises much less a HST franchise.

    Imagine how Brantley feels right now. How long and hard it’s taken for him to come back and still be the professional hitter we know he is and remember. And he’s played damn well

    Correa talks to the media and half way he reluctantly(because he said Maldonado will bring it up in the off season)praises Maldonado.

    Don’t let Clutchfans Astros forum know this about Maldy they’ll never recover

    also, I’d go to war with Carlos Correa every day of the week and twice on Sunday
