Can Houston Win ?

A lot of people were saying the same after game 5 of the NLCS. I like the Astros if anything tonight. Brandon Backe may be the most underrated pitcher in all of baseball, and for him to be getting odds at home against all but the best pitchers is ridiculous. Their bullpen is in as good a shape as the White Sox.

Just remember that the White Sox where there just as long as the Astros last night/this morning

Bullpen used up
Bad loss last night
Pitching match-up to White Sox

That's what everyone said about the Red Sox last year during the ALCS vs the Yanks.

Any team in MLB are capable of going on a 4 game win streak, ( except the Royals.....lol), and that's all it would take.

Probably will not happen, but who knows?

As long as the Astros play, they have a chance to win.
