Lucas Spence coming out of nowhere to win the Astros games. Can't overlook him in this series.

    This. If they had won the division, I’d be so much more hopeful. Now I’m just expecting to get our dicks kicked in.

  • So you're saying we'd lose game 1 and win the next 2......ok I'll take it

For what it's worth, Houston has a losing record at home, Texas are much better at home.

Houston has a lot of experience though and they have our number a lot

from how the astros announcers are talking they are worried about their pitching just like we are.

Feel like they are better than ours by a lot

not convinced about the Astros holding this....

True, would rather face Texas. Have absolutely no fear vs Cleveland if the Sox get past the WC round.

I hate that Houston ballpark though....weird s%*# happens there and rarely to our advantage. But they can be beat.

Looks like it's going to be the Astros boys and girls.

I think we actually match up with Houston well. We just happened to get the Astros at a bad time when they were hot. They have bats but I would favor the white Sox. As long as the bats show up, we should be fine. Astros walk a lot of hitters.

Very much this. Houston is an under .500 division winner who got hot for a bit this summer, including when we played them. At the same time, the Sox offense was sputtering badly.

Houston will not be going into this series feeling very confident. Going into today, 4-6 over their last 10 in crunch time. Meanwhile, we’ve been performing relatively well under the same pressure and the offense is alive again.

I think we’re headed to the ALDS.

We've always got owned by the Astros in Houston. I was at games 1/2 there in 2021 it was awful. Hopefully the new guys don't carry on the tradition of sucking there

That was a much weaker team mentally

That was a 95-win Astros team against a TLR Sox team that played .500 ball in the second half, had no fight in them, and had a terrible clubhouse atmosphere. How many Sox players from that 2021 squad are still on the team? Looking back, I don't blame the stadium for the Astros outclassing us in that ALDS.

That being said, the Sox are 2-5 vs. Houston this year, so I'm not saying I'm glad we're (likely) facing them.

Until now - last I looked we beat them to win the series back in 05 - now we will beat them to start our road to this years title!!!

How about we lose Mattress Mack some money boys!!!

It's on! Our boys can't wait to get at'em.

this is a bunch of kids who have to grow up quickly

this is their disadvantage plus the pitching staff put together by duct tape
