Bortaz will have to edit the team once we know who we're facing, but I wanted to get this made. (I feel antsy.)
Verlander vs. Severino? Do they let Cole pitch on short rest so that he can come back for a Game 5 or 6 if necessary?
Verlander vs. Bieber?
The NY/CLE game certainly lines up in NY's favor from the starting pitching matchup.

Looks like it's going to be the Yankees. Nestor will be out until at least Game 3 you'd have to think.

Win-win for the Astros. If you win, sweet. If you lose, it’s the Yanks so no shame. Imagine if we lost to a team named the Guardians? Barf.

I don't want to see the media salivate all over them, and I really feel like we need to take this pennant and win another WS to help get more of the taint off of us. This is, imo, the 2nd biggest ALCS in franchise history (behind only 2017). |

For me, there is no upside to losing this series. The lineup we have is not as lethal as in the past. I’m just saying it wouldn’t be the most surprising thing to see the offense come up short in this matchup, which would be less disappointing than against the Guardians. Bieber is tough and McKenzie and Quantrill give our offense fits. I think they more likely neutralize us to be honest. |

If they lose, they always whine cry, and kick like babies that they are getting screwed by umps or have lost by some other obscure or ridiculous reason. I almost hate these mf'ers as badly as flub fans. |

At least,the Astros losing to the Indians, would still be able to say the Astros/Altuve are the Yankees' daddy. The Astros advancing to the WS became even more important now. |

I was torn, for paying $306 a ticket, for third row Crawford box seats tonight. Or game 1 world series, paying $692 a ticket, for section 155, row 9.
The service fees are outrageous

The service fees are outrageous As much as I love the Astros, I just can't pay that kind of money to go to a game right now. I'll have to watch on the couch. I went to several playoff games in 2017-2019, but there is just too much going on right now. |

How many times I would go back in my life and change things. |
