Can I prepay for Texas/fannin? Coming from bcs and don't want to risk circling around

Mlb.com recommended spot hero and I found a garage at 703 fannin for $15 it let me prepay for. Hope I don't get screwed somehow.


That's a good spot but its hell to get out of.

I considered that a given

Hopefully I'll be comfortably listening to sparky get wet and won't mind the traffic

The aftermarket ticket prices right now are crazy.

Was glancing at it earlier and with fees some of these tickets prices are up there

Yes they are. But decent amount available. Not enough to drop significantly, imo, though. Was talking to a buddy yesterday seems like the long break between the alcs and ws helped ws ticket demand. Also, alcs was softer than expected. Like fans expect to make the ws so save their money to blow their load on ws tickets

Yeah I'm hoping as game gets closer some prices will fall

How early do you think we need to get to the ticket gate before it's a mad house?

We were planning on getting there around 5:45 …y'all think that's enough time to avoid the rush hour at the gate?

I'd get there earlier if I was you. Soak it in.

Park in the county garage adjacent to the civil district court. May be a bit pricey but very easy in and out no matter how big the crowd.

We are aiming for 5:00

If you don't want to soak it in, 545 will give you plenty of time to beat the rush.

If anyone needs gear, the Astros team store is running up to 50% off right now. Get it while you can. I just got the wife and I customized authentic jerseys for half off.

That looks dubious at best… Terrible website. Definitely not the official team store, because that's here:

Lol yeah, cromagnum may have gotten scammed. You know when you see people in terrible, cheap ass jerseys where all the colors are wrong? They get them from places like this

We would but have an 8 month old so it makes it difficult to stray too far from home base for long stretches

In 2019 all the WS we got to we literally got there before batting practice started and was a sight to see everything fill in for next few hours

Does anyone who made it to a game have an extra WS towel they'd be willing to sell?
You talking about the orange rally towels? I got an extra I'm happy to give you if that's what you're wanting


Good bull! Any chance you have a second world series rally towel?
I might, let me check when I get home tonight (currently sitting on tarmac at SeaTac airport).

Damn. Well I just placed the order a few minutes before my post so I reached out to cancel it. Maybe I don't run into problems.

Mancini got the confidence boost he needed the other night at first base. He gets 2 hits tonight, one of which is at a key point.

Couple of thoughts.

If yuli is hurt badly enough he can't play today/tomm I'd drop him from the roster and bring up C Lee as emergency catcher and let Vasquez either DH or play 1B

Yuli DH and Mancini 1B sounds like a probable option. Diaz playing first and Mancini DH probably isn't off the table either

If Yuli can't play you absolutely have to replace him. Playing a man down is not an option.

Mancini to 1B
Yordan in LF
Vazquez DH and Yanier added and backup catcher. Then decide late if push came to shove if you let him play or lose the DH. But that's an emergency decision.

If you DH Vasquez, you can never Pinch run for maldy. Ever. You can't put a inexperienced catcher in that position

That's not a good enough reason to keep Vasquez on the bench in a game clinching situation. The guy has played in a ton of massive post season games for the red soxs and won a ring.

Without yuli we need some dudes who can swing the bat. Have we pitch run for maldy all post season?

Ok, what if maldy gets hurt?

It's just risky, I'm not sure the juice is worth the squeeze, I would feel different if Vasquez gave us some power or speed, but you lose power and speed but you get better contact. And then the risk of the bad situations…

This isn't a good decision to make. Both options suck here.

I think you would DH Y. Diaz over Vasquez
