FG’s win probability for Astros down to 1%

Van Horn Street, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:41 (six years ago)

Buck did some first-guessing last inning and wanted Corbin back out there. Shouldn't matter now.

Xhuxk Eddy would have liked that spot with Dancin in the Moonlight

How nice!

Shit that was a weird but cool series

omar little, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:51 (six years ago)

The right team won

Bee OK, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:51 (six years ago)

I don’t know if I like the strikeout or the harmless popup for the last out more

Its big ball chunky time (Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved), Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:51 (six years ago)

Incredible, absolutely incredible.

Scherzer has a ring. My favorite player has a ring. This is deeply deeply satisfying.

Van Horn Street, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:52 (six years ago)

Has their ever been a seven game series where the home team lost every game?

omar little, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:52 (six years ago)

There

omar little, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:52 (six years ago)

congrats Expos!

Pour one out for Bryce 2nite

omar little, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:53 (six years ago)

Apparently never.

In any sport.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:53 (six years ago)

omar, nope, i think that was the first!

congrats nats/expos/senators

I guess the Astros are our generation's version of the '69-'71 Orioles, rather than the 90's Yankees.

NoTimeBeforeTime, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:53 (six years ago)

Someone wise here once said that the team to seem to have the most fun is the team that wins and this perfectly encapsulate those Nats.

Van Horn Street, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:55 (six years ago)

fucking kill me

qualx, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:56 (six years ago)

five hundred thousand of the worst human beings alive were just activated as baseball fans and they all live within 10 miles of me

qualx, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:56 (six years ago)

Wise men say, teams that win often seem to have more fun

happy for max and zimm though this is undeniably a fun baseball team

someone just shot off a firework i am going to jump off a bridge

qualx, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:57 (six years ago)

Short of the Jays winning, quite exhilarating.

Max and Soto and the Expos connection, yes, but I think mostly love them because they're so damn old.

clemenza, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:58 (six years ago)

Has their ever been a seven game series where the home team lost every game?

nope, not in any sport

frogbs, Thursday, 31 October 2019 04:00 (six years ago)

I figured....that is wild!

omar little, Thursday, 31 October 2019 04:02 (six years ago)

Feel a bit bad for Greinke but then again he probably doesn’t care lol

Great day, I also got a $800 bonus.

We can retire baby shark now

Van Horn Street, Thursday, 31 October 2019 04:03 (six years ago)

New Secret Sauce: bullpen optional.

NoTimeBeforeTime, Thursday, 31 October 2019 04:04 (six years ago)

Your owners look like bathfitter salesmen

Man, Ted Lerner is 94, he was born the year after the last Senators world championship.

NoTimeBeforeTime, Thursday, 31 October 2019 04:07 (six years ago)

Glad that a franchise that has not shied away from having large payrolls win the WS, also.

Van Horn Street, Thursday, 31 October 2019 04:08 (six years ago)

Tough call...So hard to square a pitcher vs. a hitter over a few games. I thought Price should have won last year, I probably would have voted for Soto this year.

clemenza, Thursday, 31 October 2019 04:14 (six years ago)

I guess the Astros are our generation's version of the '69-'71 Orioles, rather than the 90's Yankees.

'88-'90 A's, too, who were one win shy of three 100-win seasons and lost twice to markedly inferior teams.

clemenza, Thursday, 31 October 2019 04:36 (six years ago)

I would have gone Soto too.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Thursday, 31 October 2019 05:10 (six years ago)

dynasties are good to have occasionally and houston would've been a fun one if they hadn't turned heel

qualx, Thursday, 31 October 2019 05:11 (six years ago)

qualx!!!!! You’re around! Missed u plz post in other threads

jeez, Cole wearing a Boras cap after the game and expressing his reluctance to speak w/ "I'm not an employee of the team"

Dude, wear the loss for an hour? Sounds like a shit teammate

(xpost) On the call-in this morning, they weren't sure if Cole was joking or not with "I'm not on this team anymore"...Have you seen the clip?

clemenza, Thursday, 31 October 2019 13:17 (six years ago)

Also, I must redirect everyone to this brilliantly prophetic post from Oct. 13:

THERE'S ONLY ONE POSTSEASON (thread for 2019)

To which you can add: the Royals came back against both the Jays and the Cardinals after falling behind 1-3, while the Nationals came back against both the Dodgers and the Astros after falling behind 2-3 (with the Cardinals sweep between).

clemenza, Thursday, 31 October 2019 13:22 (six years ago)

I saw a clip of his interview with the hat on and he didn't seem remotely in a joking mood...not sure what the joke would be anyway?
