Yes. When I take the train, I usually park in my garage in the Med Center and take it from there. The ride is pretty quick, cheaper and easier than parking, and the walk isn't too bad.

house of blues for 17 bucks seems like a steal..

not a bad walk and getting out of there would be much easier
No way, I parked for 6 bucks near there via Parking Panda last week. Being a night game it should be easier.

According to ESPN and MLB Network... the Yankees are the only team in this ALCS

I got lucky and found street parking last week. Paid at the machine, took a picture of the zone, and when my paper ticket expired (3 hours max) I added an hour from my phone (via license plate and zone). No idea if it's legal but I didn't get a ticket and it was a grand total of $5.50 (I think). And I was right next to a lot that was charging $50.

I hope the Yankees are listening to that "rat poison" as Saban likes to call it. The more they talk about the Yankees, the more pressure their players will feel. And of course we've seen how their big man Judge performs under pressure. Striking out like 80% of his ABs....

it'll be the same if we make the World Series too... cuz we'll be facing the Dodgers or Cubs.

I just hate the Yankees

Not that this means anything but we are a run and a half favorite tonight on most sites.

-186 money line while not massive is pretty large imo

Last night on MLB network they spent 12 minutes talking about how great the Yankees lineup is. Then they showed 2 mins of a Keuchel interview about facing the Yankees.

That was the ALCS segment

Guys this is nothing new. Always has and always will be the case.

Why the outrage?

The Yankees are always going to get more than their fair share of love. it kinda comes with winning 40 AL Pennants and 27 WS titles. It does not mean that this Astros team is being ignored. All season it has been getting a quite a bit of recognition.

It's like how the Cowboys are the greatest team in pro football in spite of accomplishing nothing since 1995.

The Yankees will have to beat either DK or JV at least once at Minute Maid to win the series. Even if they beat one of them once, that is one game and they'd need to take all 3 games at Yankee Stadium.

Astros in 6

I agree with the general overall sentiment, I said that there's a certain calm about knowing the opponent is going to have to beat DK or JV.

But, DK would presumably pitch game 5 in NYC, so theoretically they could win the series without beating one of them at MMP.

How do you figure? Neither JV or DK would be pitching Game 7.

Off topic, but I usually like reading opposing teams' SBNation sites to see what their fans are thinking about the series and what they're looking for. And the Red Sox had a really good site with lots of interested thoughts and content.

The Yankees site is absolute garbage by comparison.

Ugh....my math was off. I guess DK will be going in Game 5 if we get there, then JV would go Game 6 back at MMP. Bottom line, out of the 4 potential starts (3 of them at MMP) between DK and JV, the Yanks will need to make 2 of them wins.

Did they make that in a mis-aligned table in Microsoft word?!

Damn, that's awful PR...

Hinch said bottom 3 of the order will be Beltran, Bregman, and McCann. This was on an interview with MLB Network

So Beltran.
