Jesus... Patrick Corbin got 140 million???
Cole is going to be a billionaire
Did you miss his 2018? He was dominant.
13th best pitcher fWAR in baseball in 2019 too

Did that happen on Soto's 21st birthday?aTm2004 said:
Anybody notice that after Greinke played some chin music that Soto has been so?

Man I am going to have a bump party soon from all the those game 2 bleeders.
I actually think next season could be better even if we lose Cole.
We will have all of our lineup back, and could even replace Reddick with Tucker more often since he will start on the MLB roster. We also will have Alvarez from day 1. If Correa and Springer give us both 140+ games ... this team could win 110.
Our rotation (without Cole)
1. Verlander
2. Greinke
3. McCullers Jr
4. Urquidy
5. ????
Add Cole in there and that's the best in baseball once again

So last night after Breg's slam they showed Cole and JV reacting. They both jumped up excitedly then when it got out JV was elated and Cole looked "mad"...then JV smacked Cole on the shoulder and started laughing. Anyone have any idea what that was about?
My guess is they had a bet...just curious if anyone has seen an interview that confirmed.
Went into instant game mode. Cole was thinking about going up 3-2 last night as soon as Bregman hit the slam.
Fwiw, he's interviewing Hinch now...some of you will be happy to hear Hinch expressing minor regret for taking Urquidy out when he did.Sid Farkas said:
Keeping my WS high going...chasing the dragon on satellite radio, Twitter, and tv. Just ran across Christopher Russo on mlb tv...first time to watch his show.
anyone else find his ramshackle pace and constant yelling totally exhausting? Impossible to focus on wtf he's saying. I gotta change channels or else I'll have a seizure

I actually think that was Cole's "this kid is just incredible" reaction. Hitting a World Series grand slam is something Bregman would do and Cole knows it.
The "lost a bet" idea doesn't make as much sense to me because why would he bet against Bregman hitting a grand slam.
I dunno...I just picture something like JV saying "Hey bet ya a hundred grand Bregs hits a granny here" and Cole saying "Yeah man you're on!" Then Cole starts wishing the ball to hit off the wall and when it goes over JV jumps up and down like he won a hundred grand (smacking Cole on the shoulder in a "Told ya so!" Kind of way) and Cole thinking "Damn I lost half a game check".
If the Astros manage to pull this thing out, that may well be the most under-appreciated and least talked about critical moment in this series.aTm2004 said:

I don't know if it has been discussed, but the number of walks given up is likely pitching strategy after giving up so many homers in the first 2 games. And, it seems to be effective. Only 2 runs surrendered in games 3 and 4.the last of the bohemians said:
Taking out urquindy is somewhat understandable, but bringing in "I will walk everybody " James with top of the lineup coming up was completely off the mark. We got away with it, thanks to Harris

Cole lost a bet to Jv
They are notorious wife swappers judging by how friendly Amy and Kate are with each other
I think we know JV has a threesome coming his way
