    2022 MLB Champions of the World the Houston Astros aka the Third Coast Thugs!

    Where you at Dodger Nation? I forgot that the Dodgers got punked in the playoffs by the multi personality San Diego Padres. Let's stop talking about losers. Let's talk about the team that has made the playoffs for 6 straight seasons, 7 out of the last 8.

    Astros Facts
    * Playoffs 6 straight seasons (7 out of 8)

    * ALCS for 6 Consecutive Seasons 4-2 Record
    * NLCS 4 Times before moving to AL 1-3 Record (1980, 1986, 2004 & 2005)
    * 5th World Series Appearance 1-3 Record (4th Appearance in 6 years)
    * 9-15 Record in World Series Games (3-9 Home 6-6 Road)
    * Altuve is #2 all-time in post season home runs with 23 and 6 behind the leader Manny Ramirez
    * Astros led in only 8 of the 36 innings against the Mariners
    * Astros lost against Philadelphia in their only other playoff match up in 1980 3-2 in the NLCS vs the Phils (last 4 games went into extra innings)

    I'm fading Mattress Mack. He represents the public. Unless he's actually going to win $75 million then sportsbooks will be shook.

    Astros win, superior pitching beats hitting especially when hot hitters have been sitting around for days

    In years past this is a win win for him. He has both sides leveraged. If you're in your 30s or 40s and you grew up in Houston, Texas then Mattress Mack came to your school talking about a pet Gorilla.

    Philly will party harder if they win so I choose them plus the Astros will have that stealing signs hanging over them till they get bad again, hard team to root for for a neutral.

    Nobody in Houston cares. Most of you sheep follow the LA and NY media. You guys let them control your thoughts. You are weak minded and that is why you have no real opinion yourself. Be gone simpleton.
