Too early in the game to give up. Go Astros!

I hate Lance. There, I said it. 1-Greinke 2-Valdez 3-Urquidy 4-Whitley 5-Free Agent Lance to the pen. Osuna and Devo gone. Trade Greinke |

It doesn't matter at this point, but there is no reason to pull Lance against Kier. Let him finish the inning and then go to Urquidy.

Who gives a shit? He's been gone for a while now. Players come and go. Now, now........all of us who want to win should give a shit. The guy we didn't need is out there sticking it up our ass. |

I second that. He keeps getting himself out on one pitch. |

We are letting Morton pile up one and two pitch outs. He has gone 5 innings on less than 50 pitches. We have no clue.
It would have been nice to have had Charlie in an Astros uniform for this game.

I think Dusty did a great job this season. I hope he is back next year.

I can't believe Cash pulled Morton. I thought it was a bad move,but, I'm glad he's out. I'd rather face their pen.

1. Dusty was mediocre as always. He doesn't make or break a team.
2. Sure wish Springer would have shown up to his last game as an Astro.
3. Thanks for nothing, Bregman.
4. Good riddance, Reddick. Thanks for the 2017 regular season and nothing else.
5. Please stay, Brantley.
6. Go to the bullpen and stfu, Lance.
7. Thanks for waking your bat up in the postseason, Jose. Now do it during the season next year so we're not a sub-.500 team. P. S. Fix your baserunning and throws.
8. Thank you: Urquidy, Framber, Paredes, and Javier. You give us some hope for the future pitching staff.

They offered Morton a contract, retard. He took one with the Rays instead. Probably to get away from the sign-stealing scandal. |

You give us some hope for the future pitching staff. And, as expected, you basically throw the whole damn lineup under the bus with the exception of your man crush, little Jose, who cost us games two and three by throwing like a damn 9 year old girl. You don't know that Springer is gone....it isn't set in stone. We will be a much weaker team without him. In case you missed it, Correa told George what those of us with baseball knowledge know; "For the team to go, it all starts with you". He didn't say it started with your boy. Jose had a great post-season with the bat, but, cost us with his throwing. You can deny it all day long, but, it happened and you can't erase it. I may go overboard pointing out his mistakes, but, you look like a fool for thinking he's perfect and the MVP of the team. He won't fix his baserunning.....he's been doing the same shit over and over and over ever since he's been here. 1. Dusty did a better job in this series than I expected. 2. Thank you, George, for all you have done and being the MVP and sparkplug of this team. Thanks for carrying us to the 2017 World Series title. Thanks for being a great outfielder and being a class act. I hope you agree to re-sign with us. But, if you aren't offered as much as Altuve and Bregman are getting, you have every right to tell Jim Crane to kiss your ass and sign elsewhere. 3. I concur with your analysis of Bregman. 4. I concur with your message to Reddick 5. I definitely want Brantley to stay and get his buddy, George, to stay with him. 6. I agree with McCullers going to the pen. If he does, we need to sign another quality starting pitcher. 7. Thank you, Jose, for being the hitter you were expected to be. I just wish you hadn't blown games two and three for us in the process. 8. Thank you Framber Valdez, Jose Urquidy, Paredes, Javier, Taylor, Raley, and Scrubb for saving our ass. 9, Pack your bags Josh James, Garneau, and Cy Sneed and don't let the doorknob hit you in the ass on the way out. |

Don't be an idiot. I don't recall ever reading or hearing it confirmed that we offered him a contract. All I remember is them saying that Luhnow and Crane were concerned that he had shoulder problems. We may have offered him, but, we should have offered him enough to keep him unless he just wanted out and I can't believe he was unhappy in Houston. \ We have a lot to do in the off-season and we need to be able to discuss, agree, and disagree without calling each other names. I don't respond well to being called a retard, an idiot, a mf'er, etc. |

Pedro Martinez just announced that we don't need to change anything. He said if we had any breaks in the first three games, we would have swept the Rays.

Springer didn't throw like a girl and cost us two games.........your boy did that. Neither is perfect, even though you think Altuve is. By the way, who gives a shit what AJ Hinch said about Altuve..he's gone. Hinch was wrong to let Jose swing 3-0 and steal bases on his own. He couldn't handle it. The players know George Springer is the key to the offense.....He had a bad night tonight.....who picked him up....NOBODY. Jose's two infield hits were nice but didn't produce anything. |

Springer didn't throw like a girl and cost us two games.........your boy did that. Neither is perfect, even though you think Altuve is. No, he just mostly was mediocre or bad for five of the seven games. In any case, the team wins the series if it weren't for ridiculously bad misfortune on some of the hard hit balls in the first three games. It just wasn't their series. Nobody is really at fault other than maybe Bregman and Gurriel really stinking. |

Nobody is really at fault other than maybe Bregman and Gurriel really stinking. I agree that we could have won any of the first three games if not for spectacular defensive plays by the Rays or our guys hitting the ball hard right at somebody. In Bregman's defense, he hit into more hard luck than anyone. Springer drove in the first two runs we scored to put us ahead in game six and scored on Jose's double. We would have blown that game open if not for the horrible game Bregman had......two DP balls and two K's. |

The Rays are exceptional fielders who go all in on playing hitters to pull or chop up the middle, who the Astros were more than happy to be the majority of the time. That is all.
