That was a scheduling fluke that will not happen again. Game one, off day, game two, off day, game three. That doesn’t mean they wouldn’t have lost anyway, but a dominant pitcher won’t be able to pitch games 1 and 3 ever again with 3 days rest unless it’s weather related.
We do, but playoff teams typically don't throw slouches out there to start games in the ALDS and ALCS. We are absolutely the prohibitive favorites to win the pennant, and most likely the WS, but our pitchers have to pitch, our hitters have to hit, and our fielders have to field. They play the games for a reason. But it's hard not to get JACKED when you look at the pitching rotation we're putting out there!
Not a fluke, it was done that way for TV purposes. If Hun and Bud were in the same room there would have been fisticuffs.
The same jabroni who arbitrarily decided we had to have our roof open in '05 - solely because it was seen as 'too much of a home field advantage'.
I've been beaten down over the years by Houston sports. Never ever get my hopes up for anything but this time, I just cant help myself! If your an Astros fan and you ain't excited after this trade, go see a doctor because you is one sick mofo!
LOL "That's a F%$#ing nuke!" I wanna watch there remainder of that show. The Yankees have been doing this to every team in baseball forever. It is so satisfying to see a Yankee fan have to deal with being on the outside for a change. I saw several tweeter accounts over the last week from Yankee fans saying how it no matter what pitcher Houston gets they'll improve the pitcher. One in particular mentioned they over paid for and can't improve his performance but if he'd went to Houston he'd be having a career year. It's so funny to be inside the Yanks fans heads.
As long as we don’t lose to the Yankees I will live with it. Between the couple friends of mine that are Yankees fans and the comments I see from their reporters and fans on Twitter, their arrogance kills me.
It’s the three headed Ace VCG! Opposing teams are trembling in their boots... With an offense to boot, and a bullpen that appears stacked.
