It's been a little unclear if you need to re-register between series. I did just in case.

Quick eyeball on position vs position in regards to the lineups. (Based off regular season numbers)

1B
Astros: Y. Gurriel (.299, 18HR, 1.8 WAR)
Yankees: G. Bird (.190, 9HR, -.4 WAR)

2B
Astros: J. Altuve (.346, 24HR, 7.5 WAR)
Yankees: S. Castro(.300, 16HR, 1.9 WAR)

SS
Astros: C. Correa (.315, 24HR, 5.2 WAR)
Yankees: D. Gregorius (.287, 25HR, 3.9 WAR)

3B
Astros: A. Bregman (.284, 19HR, 3.8 WAR)
Yankees: T. Frazier (.222, 11HR, 1.2 WAR)

LF:
Astros: M. Gonzalez (.303, 23HR, 4.1 WAR)
Yankees: B. Gardner (.264, 21HR, 3.8 WAR)

CF
Astros: G. Springer (.283, 34HR, 4.5 WAR)
Yankees: J. Elsbury (.264, 7HR, 1.6 WAR)

RF
Astros: J. Reddick (.314, 13HR, 3.5 WAR)
Yankees: A. Judge (.284, 52 HR, 8.2 WAR)

DH
Astros:E. Gattis (.263, 12 HR, .9 WAR)
Yankees: C. Headley (.273, 12HR, 1.9 WAR
I would still take every single one of our position players over theres.

Marwin over Gardner is a no brainer.

Reddick is way more clutch than Judge, and has a better chance of getting a late game hit than Judge.

Finally, McCann is one of the few hitters who has lack luster numbers, but I trust his experience to get the job done (whatever it may be) over Sanchez.

And for the record, I'm dancing around the "W S" term so as not to anger Jobu

Not to mention Sanchez drops A TON of balls. He's sloppy.

So you aren't looking for LCS tickets? I had some friends back out of Saturday's game and may need to sell some of the tickets.

Including the game-ending strike three last night. He did such a poor job on that pitch, I'm surprised they got the strike call.

Austin Jackson should have stayed in the box, maybe Sanchez wouldn't have tagged him and he could've run to first like Stanford-Cal

432. $95 each. Not sure how many are available until I talk to my brother.

Not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing but I'm usually on the pessimistic side of things when it comes to big games or big series when talking about Aggies/Astros.

I feel for games 1&2 especially...New York is about to walk into an Fing bandsaw they want no part of with this Astros lineup.

Maybe it's a false sense of confidence but other than their bullpen there isn't a single aspect of this series that concerns me. Everything about the Yankees reeks "pretty good" or "above average".

If they end up winning 4 of 7 games they are going to have to play a very high level of baseball in all aspects imo

I get a weird sense of calm about the fact that if we're going to lose a series, the opponent is going to have to beat either Keuchel or Verlander.

Tanaka
Severino
Sabathia
Gray

It would be poetic if we could light up Sonny Gray... considering so many Astros were angry we didn't trade for him at the deadline.

That is a really long rest for Gray. Figured we would see him tomorrow.

I did.

They have no faith in Gray and for some odd reason have all the faith in the world in Tanaka. Its odd since they traded for Gray to be the guy.

We were 5-2 against the Yanks this year. Let's keep that going and mess these dudes up. Win this series as quickly as possible. Who cares who starts? Let's hang 10+ runs a game on these clowns.

Nats should have let Albers hit. His inning was the best they've had all night.

Horrible horrible horrible play by Wieters. Worst I've seen this post season.

Although to be fair he did get hit by the backswing. Always thought the rules on contact between the hitter and the catcher favor the hitter way too much. Free base if the catchers mitt touches the bat, but nothing to protect the catcher if the batter nails the catcher in the head with the backswing.

Wieters absolutely tanking the Nats this inning. This must be what it was like to watch the Chicago Black Sox play.
Texags is garbage
How long do you want to ignore this user?
This Nats meltdown is almost painful to watch. I really hope we don't have any fellow Ags that are Nat fans.

Scherzer is probably rightfully pissed at Wieters.
