Why would you have any less confidence? We are a really good team and they have been here before.
Because people on Texags love to be miserable?
Martin Maldonado reached out to Albert Pujols before the start of the World Series and asked Pujols to send him some bats -- and today, a half-dozen arrived from the future HOFer. Maldonado believes the Pujols always got some of the best quality of bats because of his stature.

First of all it's a bad take. Second of all it's practically begging the baseball gods to have him hit for the home run cycle tonight. Good Lord dude, retract your ridiculous take.
I used to think that way and it's resulted in Aggie football. ***** Harper, he will eat dicks tonight and be a *****.
I'm not mad at it.
The bats are great, but what we really need is some of those Pujols magic HR balls.bearkatag15 said:Martin Maldonado reached out to Albert Pujols before the start of the World Series and asked Pujols to send him some bats -- and today, a half-dozen arrived from the future HOFer.

Pre-game on Fox, they are all talking about Philly having the momentum because they beat the Padres...
THE ASTROS HAVEN'T LOST A GAME IN THE POSTSEASON!!! MOMENTUM IS ON OUR SIDE
I’m happy with either outcome in this World Series. I want Bryce Harper to get his ring. Wouldn’t feel right if he didn’t get one in his prime. But I also love when the bad guy wins and the Astros getting a legit ring to put 2017 to bed would be nice, too.
