Before Game 2: Astros third base coach Gary Pettis will throw out the ceremonial first pitch. Former UT QB Vince Young will provide the “Play Ball” call.

We're gonna rock the **** out of Sale
I think that's exactly how he's playing it out in his head.Teddy Perkins said:
I wonder if Cora likes his odds of stealing game 2 in H-Town with Eovaldi against LuAce.
DIdn't Eovaldi start game 4 of the DS on short rest on Monday? If so and he were to start game 1, Friday would be a 2nd start in a row on short rest.Ag_07 said:
But he would have a big advantage with eovaldi gm 1 and have a better chance at that 1-0 lead. Then bank on even a so-so Sale beating Luis.

Enjoy this post season because they won't be making it for a while if they let Correa walk. You can only have so many Chas McCormicks on a team and still be successful.
Quote:
Jake Meyers? Meyers is 25, just got to the majors, and hit .254. He's a utility player at best. They didn't let Springer walk because of Jake Meyers. You can't let your core players walk. Springer. Now Correa. You might as well start trading guys because you are basically going to be starting over.
