ALDS- Rays/Astros

Glasnow vs Verlander

Hopefully the Rays can hang with the Stros.

I think Brantley is going to have a huge postseason.

This should be a good series I think.

Have to go Stros though.

Side note, John Tumpane the HP Ump today is my Dad's best friends brother.  Local guy grew up in Beverly.

There’s your game unless Verlander gets homer happy again.

Terrible defensive breakdown, Meadows should have called everyone off, even if he was playing a relatively deep RF, it hung up there forever.

He was a year behind me in high school. We also played in little league together.

Meadows screwed up. He did something similar the other day too. 

 

2013 ALDS Game 1 all over again. Close game at Boston and a Wil Myers screw up in RF blows the game open. 

This would be the biggest upset in division series history if Ray's managed to do it. They wont though.

That was a quick hook.

Avi had a chance to be the hero.

Astros-Yankees is coming.

15 K's for Cole. I hope Jerry was watching. 

an the astros will pound the yankees, it won't be even close.

The pitching has been there. Just worst possible matchup for the Rays. And maybe anyone really.  

 

No reason to be mad or even upset. Atleast not getting embarrassed like the Twins lol.

Yeah the Rays are definitely fighters, they just can't break through that tough Astros pitching.  They have a good chance to win in game 3 as Grienke is not elite like Verlander and Cole.

Yeah it will be a blow out.  3-4 runs minimum.

It looks like the smartest team in baseball (just ask them) made a really dumb decision.  That's a shame.  

That’s one of the best relays I’ve ever seen

Yeah, I don’t get the 3 days rest thing with a series lead. They must be confident Cole can handle Game 5 at home, and it would have just been a bonus if Verlander could close it tonight.

Thanks Ron. I do love me some Avi Garcia. I'd be so happy if they brought him back. If I lived in Chicago I'd buy season tickets for he and Jose anchoring the young lineup and I'm serious.  We could get Avi for 2 years 12 million total probably. JD Martinez is gonna cost so much it'll make our heads spin (caveat: I do not care bout Jerry's wallet shrinking a bit, still bang for the buck Avi might give u that and spend the $$ on pitching, pitching, pitching). p.s: Avi is cleanup hitter on a playoff team tonight for an organization that likes advanced stats, hmmmm....

Props to the rays, but Verlander looked like shit.

Avi 3-4, R
