I’m not sure why anyone would be surprised about Keuchel being left off the roster, he’s been brutal.

Quoted from mahony:MLB should PERMANENTLY ban any player who has been caught cheating. Altuve is a thief who stole money from Aaron Judge's wallet. Where is his penalty? The hypocrisy here smells bad. Baseball is self policing when there is no punishment given out by those in charge, everyone knows this. It's been that way for over 100 years.
Self policing works for most in game stuff but no way you can throw the ball at Altuve's head enough for payback. Astro players were not punished by major league baseball at all, not one fine not nothing! Two of the coaches are back in baseball with tigers and red sox as well so clearly its all water under the bridge. It's like Brady and deflate gate, no one cares but the fans
My dream World Series would be the Dodgers & astros..imagine Joe Kelly pitching to that lil bitch Altuve..that’d be fn classic! Put the Astros cheating in the past?! No fn way..and I wonder if they’ll make a plate like this for Taylor? Quite historic/memorable

If the Dodgers could beat the Astros in the playoffs that would be the WS so I would be good with that….better to make it to a WS than not at all.
Quoted from Chisox:I searched and didn’t find another thread. Does anybody give a shit about baseball? I do. I think I speak for all of Pinside when I say lets go

Stro’s up 5-0….it ain’t over but looking good so far!

I like your attitude. Plus, I’d like to see Dusty Baker do well. I have fond memories of him as a kid. It’s too bad he had to manage two teams I despise. No one wants to see Tampa Bay or the White Sox make the World Series. Can you imagine a Milwaukee vs. Tampa Bay series?
Hey, from your seats, are you able to hear the garbage can from the astros dugout?

I am the guy that bangs the trashcan LOL!
Dusty Baker is well respected in baseball….if there is anyone deserving to be in a WS he is the guy….he ain’t got many years left as a coach. He is just so well regarded from anyone in baseball that has worked with him. That’s all you hear….nothing negative. Now you can critique his coaching and question a few choices but overall he knows what he is doing.
Quoted from vicjw66:Can you imagine a Milwaukee vs. Tampa Bay series?
We should be so lucky.
Great game tonight! Too soon to get excited….need 2 more wins.
McCullers was great tonight. He settled in early and did his part. Can’t ask anything more from a pitcher and he delivered.
Quoted from Jaybird815:Which one?
The last one. Hey, do you miss me in the NFL thread? Boring AF without me and who day in there, huh?
Quoted from vicjw66:The last one. Hey, do you miss me in the NFL thread? Boring AF without me and who day in there, huh?
Just messing with you. I’m sure you guys are doing fine without me. Go Rams!
Quoted from vicjw66:The last one. Hey, do you miss me in the NFL thread? Boring AF without me and who day in there, huh?
Haha, There was a drive to get you reinstated by the guys, but you’d have to change your handle to JoshGordon66
Quoted from Deaconblooze:If you want, we can just laugh about LA buying the wrong teams from cooler cities right in here.
Hah. L.A. won’t pay for any team or their new stadium. The teams pay for the privilege of playing here. The value of any franchise doubles as soon as it’s announced they’re moving here. Winning.
Quoted from Pickle:What a throw by ALTUVE!!! That’s the defense that wins games.
One team is a good defensive team and the other is a bad one, the difference in this game and likely the series.
Quoted from Jaybird815:One team is a good defensive team and the other is a bad one, the difference in this game and likely the series.
You sir are correct!
Quoted from Jaybird815:One team is a good defensive team and the other is a bad one, the difference in this game and likely the series.
Can’t argue that .
I hate the Astros. Not because they are playing my team, but because of the cheating.
That being said, they took us to the shed those last two games. Here's hoping we can win the next two and shift the momentum in our favor.
One silver lining (if they were to be eliminated on Sunday): the Sox are the youngest team in all of baseball. They are built to be good for a while.

Your team cheated as well
Tampa shut down Sale early….that is crazy. But Boston is making a game of it so it’s way to early to call this one. That’s what makes playoff baseball so good.
Quoted from Jaybird815:Is it Rodon or Cease game 3?
Doesn’t matter fireworks are going to go off like the 4th of July !

It will be announced tomorrow .I’m guessing Rodon .

Please tell me you're joking. Please?
Quoted from pinpin8990:Please tell me you're joking. Please?
Maybe not your current team….but this is no secret. It’s been covered by many people that this happened.

C’mon man, they’re middle of the pack age wise, they are built to be good for a bit, but let’s not be making shit up just cause you’re getting taken to the wood shed.

They were the youngest team last year. They added Lynn, Hamilton, Hendricks and all the dudes at the deadline this year that skewed them to the middle of the pack. The core is still young. Didn’t really see the game today because you know…it’s on at fucking 1:00 and work and stuff. Apparently my guys aren’t ready yet (White Sox). Playoff baseball will expose and magnify your weaknesses like an electron microscope. You’ve got to be tight in all facets of the game or you’re gonna lose. As much as I hate the fucking Astros, they are a very good team, especially in the playoffs. Their infield defense (including catcher) is excellent. They always have a low strikeout rate and are elite at working the count. Nothing more frustrating than seeing the other team grind and make your pitcher throw 30+ pitches in an inning then your guys come up and make 3 outs on 6 pitches. I think walks are the most underrated stat in baseball. Walks killed the Sox the last 2 games. I’m just spewing random shit, I have no point haha.
Man the Dodgers dropped a Duece tonight.
Just a lackluster performance.
The two best teams get to play each other and the Dodgers don't show up to play.
Aarrrggghh.

They swung at every bad pitch. They have to be more patient and check their swings.
Quoted from LeMansFan:Or maybe the Giants are just a really good team???
That they are. Webb pitched a brilliant game yesterday, and full credit to him and his team. A few defensive plays that were awesome too. A must win 2nite for the Dodgers..
Quoted from Kkoss24:It will be announced tomorrow .I’m guessing Rodon .
Cease it is.
