Skubal vs. Framber
Quite the pitching matchup... I hope we have Yordan.

If Astros can beat Tigers game 1, then there would be no reason why they can’t win the series. Skubal is a beast

Agree with Thomas. If we can win game 1, I feel good about wrapping up the mini series. We need 2022 playoff Framber.

If Yordan can play I love our chances. If he can't play, it's going to be tough.

Is Verlander long inning relief in the WC series?

Who do you think is the starting OF
Tucker - Heyward - Dubon or Meyers?

I would be more concerned if they started a no name opener. When the stros usually face the top of a team's rotation that is when they have the big game.

Who do you think is the starting OF Tucker - Heyward - Dubon or Meyers? Thomas a quick note, what was your review of getting through the procedure. |

They don’t do the gallon orange drink anymore. I drank some concoction of about 9 ounces the night before and really early the day off. It did the job, I was constantly in the bathroom. But overall, I think it was way better than I was warned about |

But overall, I think it was way better than I was warned about I did mine almost two years ago, drinking the gallon jug, I am glad the system has changed, because they have me scheduled for another one next year. It was my first one, i was fortunate they found 4. |

Houston Advantages:
Hitting: HOU 5th in wRC+, DET 21st
Rotation: HOU tied for 7th in SP ERA, DET 10th when removing Flaherty's numbers. In reality it's 0.01 difference, but Brown and Arrighetti are different animals than they were and Kikuchi only contributed 2 months to it
Detroit Advantages:
Defense: HOU 15th in fDEF, DET 4th
Baserunning: HOU 28th in BsR, DET 9th
Tossup:
Bullpen: HOU 8th in RP ERA, DET 5th, but HOU better in xFIP, and DET bullpen has pitched an extra 142.2 innings so maybe they're tired?

If we play a clean game and Framber doesn't implode, we should win.... But if they go up there hacking at Skubal 1st pitches and letting him get into the 7th or 8th, it could be bad.

The fact that Caratini is the starting 1B and Dubon the starting LF in a playoff game is pretty sad. Work to be done this off-season.
Score some runs, top six guys!
