    Mlb playoffs decided already?
    Looks like Astros vs Rays and Braves vs Dodgers.
    Then Astros vs Braves in the World Series and Astros win it all. I can’t really see it any other way, I think this is pretty much locked in. I would bet accordingly

    Astros nearing a similar situation to the Pads.. running out of starting arms which would stress their pen too much in a 7 game series. assuming they can still close it out against the A's, it'd be very hard seeing them get past the Yanks/Rays

      As an Astro fan I'm excited to see our swagger back. That said, I don't think we can beat the Yankees or the Rays this year. However, if Greinke and McCullers are pitching like they can, then we can beat anyone. That said, we have never seen Greinke on top of his pitches for an entire game since he joined the Astros. Usually we only see flashes of his dominant stuff. He's an awesome person though. With the Texans being an absolute embarrassment....it's nice to see the Astros distract us from them.

        as a yankees fan we are too weak with starting pitching and middle relief. unless we get someone hot besides Cole or our lineup outscores you while we still give up 5 runs, we are not going to win.

          The Yankees lineup never intimidated us when we had Verlander, Dallas, Uncle Charlie or Cole & Verlander. Our pitching is nothing like it was the last 5 years. The Yankees look like an impossible matchup this year. Nobody here in Houston wants to face them. Everyone would rather take our chances with the Rays pitching staff instead of the Yankees offense. That 9th inning for the Yanks versus the Indians was epic. I'm a Yankee hater but had to give them props for that. I'm hoping we can finish off the A's today. We don't look ahead with this group. Things can change quickly for the 2020 Astros. I can't believe we are 4-0 in the playoffs. We have played so bad this season that there is no way anyone here would of thought we would be off to this type of start. A's could turn this around quickly but I feel so much better about this team now. The only problem offensively is Altuve isn't close to the same guy this year. We are also not as deep as the last few years. Our 8/9 hitters are pretty average.

                  Nothing behind Cole. Tampa wins tonite they should win series, and they can even hit Cole too so.....

                                so now that it's set... who do you guys like in the World Series

                                Tampa won NHL
                                LA won NBA
                                MLB = LA vs Tampa

                                      Duke why you so bitter?

                                      I hammered under 8.5 tonight. My biggest win in the playoffs. No one really cares if the dodgers win. They have an all star team and they are sweating out wins
