the second I saw the way they were getting strikes in game 6 of the alcs I bet them to win the WS... the fix was in on this one boys. interesting to see if Houston can keep this core together.. bregman most likely the first cast off to go get paid elsewhere

I am so grateful to Roberts for starting Darvish in game 7. I think if he starts ANYONE else tonight, this games goes down to the wire, and the Dodgers have a chance to win this one. As a life long Astros fan, thank god he's an idiot.

Correa just got engaged to his dime piece girlfriend on live TV after winning the World Series. It doesn't get any more pimp than that.

better hope he doesn't get married in California or else young Carlos is in for a rough life lesson

Congrats Astros fans, well deserved after a great season and enduring that run of recent rough seasons. Bet they feel a lifetime ago right now!

Crazy year, hope MLB does something about those balls but doubt they will homers rule at the end of the day. I'm typically an under bettor (or was) and gave them up three weeks into the season, the least I've ever bet MLB was this one. Fun to watch though I guess. So many second and third no outs that resulted in nothing, ain't no small ball anymore that's for sure!

Miss Texas Daniella Rodriguez. She claims to be proud of her Mexican heritage. Mexican? I don't know any Mexicans that look like her. Hope Trump can put into the Border Wall package free entry for women that meet her ahem credentials:

**Auto Donk** · 11-02-17, 05:51 AM

hmm.... i see your point.... about not lookin' all to mexican.....

typical mexicans:

**JIBBBY** · 11-02-17, 12:47 PM

Mexican chicks are ok looking up until they hit 18 years of age, they mostly all get fat then and start having a million babies.. No offense just an opinion.. No thanks pass...

The question for the Astros now is what they do with Ken Giles. Houston gave up a lot to obtain him, and while he will get a raise this winter in arbitration, he remains under team control through 2020. It would be odd to chalk up Giles’ struggles in this postseason to fatigue, given that he pitched less this year than either of the previous two seasons. That leaves the possibility that Giles ran into the same problems throwing sliders with questionable baseballs that turned Yu Darvish into a shell of himself, or that there’s a mechanical flaw that needs to be addressed, or that Giles broke mentally, something that’s been seen with relievers for decades but is hardly as obvious as it may seem to outside observers.

The Astros will have the best idea of what went wrong. Their best bet, analytically, is to hold on to Giles this winter. His postseason was bad enough to lower his trade value, because other teams won’t have as good a read on his deficiencies, and see only the performance. The difference is if Houston’s brain trust has lost faith in Giles and does not believe he can bounce back from this.

It’s a much easier question to deal with when you’re getting fitted for World Series rings rather than pondering failure on a beach somewhere. But the Astros have to figure out not only what happened to Giles, but why it did, before they can move on and go about the business of trying to win another World Series with their closer on the mound at the end of it.
