MLB 2019: Mad Max Beyond Astrodome

[Jedi_Master]

The remaining playoff teams : Yankees, Astros, and Nationals have the 3rd, 7th, and 8th highest payrolls (respectively) in MLB.

CC Sabathia was pitching with a partially separated shoulder last night. God damn, that dude is a gamer.

Sucks that he has to end his career on such a down note.

MLB wants to gut the minor leagues in the name of improving conditions, hilarious if anyone buys that one.

Bleah. Let him have Baker and let them both sink the Phillies into wreck and ruin. Good riddance. (sorry, biggles)

LETS GO YANKEES!!! LETS GO YANKEES!!! LETS GO YANKEES!!!

Just got off work and had to log in to support my favorite baseball team. I'm hoping they can win this game, and tomorrow's game, and the next game.

Game 6, here we come!!!! YES!!! Ball game over!!! YANKEES WIN!!!! THE YANKEES WIN!!!!

 

[Spider]

Oops LOL

If the Yanks get past both Verlander and Cole I'll be impressed. And pissed.

I have no love for the Astros either, although those classic stripped uniforms were really cool.

And JR Richard was a favorite when I was a kid.

It's really too bad one of these teams has to win the AL.

The Astros' offense has completely and utterly collapsed. They're currently rocking a .178 / .275 / .302 slash line in 169 at-bats in the ALCS.

LETS GO YANKEES! LETS GO YANKEES!! LETS GO YANKEES!!! Do or die for the good guys; we need to play small ball, and do some strategic pitching rotations to stop that good Astros bats, but I believe we can do it. Game 6 will be a nail biter.

Loath as I am to say it, given that both teams are doing bullpen games tonight, the edge almost certainly goes to the Yankees, who have a far stronger relieving corps than the Astros do.

Astros to the World Series!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Kronos]

The forces of evil are vanquished.

Go Nationals!

 

[cardinal biggles]

This is the first time since the pre-Ruth era that a decade has come and gone and the Yankees have failed to advance to the World Series at least once.

You can thank the Astros for knocking them out twice.

 

[Tom Hendricks]

That was a great game, it will be a good World Series

 

[Finn]

Yankees lose

Not their longest drought though.
1964 to 1976 ----- 11 years
1981 to 1996 ------ 14 years

And all is right with the world
