Cleveland has to burn Kluber on Wednesday. That means they'd either pitch him on 3 days rest in game 2, or we wouldn't see him until game 5. Either way, good break for us.


What is the basis for not seeing him until game 5?

Seems he'd be ready game 3
Yeah this doesn't make much sense to me. Why not until game 5 when there is 3 and 4 in there?

Yeah sorry, I wrote that while half blind and half asleep. I meant that we probably wouldn't see him until game 3, unless they decide to start him on 3 days' rest.

Sportscenter is a joke... So far... Bears, Trubitsky, Dodgers, Yankees, more Trubitsky, touchdown celebrations...

Astros? Astros who?

It was the same last night on MLB Network. Yankees/Indians, Cubs/Nationals, more Yankees/Indians, more Cubs/Nationals, some Dodger/Diamondback updates, then finally some Astros/Red Sox.

I actually have 6 links, and was getting super pissed the more info I looked up...So, look it up yourself, I am not going to fight about something I know to be true, to a person who would just as soon see me in prison or dead.

Some moron just said we should want to play the Indians because of the "Mystique" of the Yankees...
didn't see that but, Arod and Big Papi both said the Stros want the Yankees because we are better.


It was Keith Hernandez trying to sound insightful. He was real proud of himself for a sec.


Can't hate too much. He's been high on the Astros since he saw us when the Mets came to town.

Actually, I just thought about '86. Screw Hernandez. #NeverForget

Woke up this morning feeling pretty damn good knowing we don't have a game 5 to play.

Still impressed at what actually went down yesterday. Coming back on the best starter and the best closer in the game.

That baseball game yesterday was #2 only to the 18-inning Chris Burke walk-off game as far best games I've watched. The pressure and anxiety hanging on every pitch was incredible. Glad I could watch it all the way through.

This team is special and honestly I like our chances against either NY or CLE. CLE has shown it's beatable and is really in a bad spot after this ALDS and we've shown to match up pretty well with NY. IDGAF who it is...BRING EM ON!!!

Nick is an idiot.

With this logic I guess I better not let my American flag bandana touch the ground.

Please dear lord lets not bring that stuff into this thread. If you want to talk politics or flag related debate, make a new thread.

Obviously I'm happy there's no game 5 but this sucks having to wait until Friday for the next game.

To be honest, there probably aren't many things MORE American than winning a baseball playoff series and celebrating by wrapping yourself in the flag and dousing each other with beer.

Sounds pretty awesome to me.

True

But we've got a game 5 to watch tomorrow. Everyone hope and pray it goes 28 innings and every pitcher for both teams is spent.

And FWIW Reid Ryan was just on 790 talking ALCS game times.

He said with the Dodgers clinching last night and them hosting the NLCS then we'll most likely be the early evening slot with them being the late slot.

Look for us to get the 5 or 6 pm slot for games 1&2.

Game 1 on Friday we will be the only game on so it will be 7pm central. Game 2 is on Saturday so whatever time doesn't really matter. Game 3 we are only game on as well so should be 7 as well. Games 4 and 5 we will get screwed with 3pm starts on Tuesday and Wednesday with the NL game being the night game on the east coast.

And that the Yankees prevail so the Astros get the prime time Friday, Saturday, Friday, and Saturday games at home.

Can this please completely dispel the Astros being a cold number crunching robotic beep boop beep organization?




That is coming from Mr. No Fun old school Brian McCann.

You can tell the locker room loves McCannonball. Lance McCullers interview on 790 about him after the game was pretty funny.

That is coming from Mr. No Fun old school Brian McCann.

He gets A LOT of praise from his teammates.

Lance was talking about him during a postgame interview and he was raving about what a great person, teammate, player, and leader he was. Lance admitted he had a rough 2nd half but touched on what an impact McCann has had on getting him through the rough patch and how much it meant to work with him.

Pretty good stuff.

And if you missed it Verlander also stated that this win and this run overall has meant a lot to him in vindicating himself in deciding to leave DET. Said it was really hard but he now sees it was the right decision.
