Closed it out in Minute Maid north last night. Now we face the white hot Phillies. Should be a damn good series.

The Barry Bonds of baseball teams. Phillies already the real champs. Worst take I've read on the internet all day... ![[Linked Image]](https://thumbs.gfycat.com/DistantChiefHornedtoad-max-1mb.gif)

The Barry Bonds of baseball teams. Phillies already the real champs. Worst take I've read on the internet all day... yep, not very sharp. There are 4 players on this team from 2017. 'Stros keep doing it turning over the whole roster and under intense scrutiny while teams like the Yankees get a free pass! Philthy sux !

Houston won the pennant because of great pitching. Their starters are the best in the AL and because of a lock-down bullpen they play six inning games. Stanek, Neris, Montero, and Pressly have been tremendous, with rookie Hunter Brown already becoming a force as well. Just ignore the envious, butthurt Rangers fans. What else are they going to say? The Astros have spanked that arse year after year and made them like it.

should be a great series , I hope Houston can win it .
The big difference is the Phillies have left handed power in Harper and Schwarber --- the Yankee's really only had right handed power .

The Astros own the Yankees. Actually for the last six years they have pretty much owned the American League.
They will have their rotation set up for the Series. Now they just have to do it against a hot club. You know you have a good bullpen when Stanek (1.13 era) can't even get on the field for more than 1 inning. Pena is a superstar in the making. Carlos who?  Correa put up good regular Season numbers. Post season he was ok. 2018 thru 2019 he didn’t do much in the post season. Best thing about Peña is that he is years from free agency. Already showing he is a post season gamer with the MVP.

ASTROS have the pitching and they are not too shabby in the power department.

The Astros have yet to use all the starters this post season, and the pitching shut down the last two teams. Go Astros!!!

Wife and her dad are going to game 2. Tickets were going fast and prices seemed like they were going up by the minute. Hope it’s a good one!
