    It sucks to put that much traffic on after getting two quick outs, but all things considered, it was a win to keep the Rangers to just one. Never know when the game could fly out of hand.

    Heim is good. Rangers still getting balls called strikes.

    Astros could've gotten similar if the better player played.

    So what’s your excuse for the Astros winning without Correa and Springer? They won without the better players at their positions.

    - Pena got hot.
    - Greatest bullpen performance in playoff history.
    - Better DH/LF

    Dusty's boyfriends keep forgetting he had Correa for half his tenure. And Springer for one.

    Hinch played his best players like any rational manager would..

    Dusty won a ring WITHOUT Correa. And Springer. And you mentioned Peña got hot, okay so good. That means other players did their job even WITH Maldonado in the lineup…..

    What I like about these diamondbacks is they have speed, the Astros are slow ass hell on the bases and they play smart small ball

    Dusty didn't win WITH Correa and Springer.

    HInch won WITHOUT the greatest bullpen in history.

    Other players' jobs are easier with other better players.

    Keep defending your boyfriend. DNPing Diaz was one of stupidest decisions in the history of sports.

    Astros have plenty of speed. Bregman is the only slow-poke.

    Their better catcher is above average at his position, but he DNPCD.
