If the Astros forget how to bat for this whole series then the only thing stopping the Phillies from winning will be gone.

too dumb to be probated; not too dumb to be autobanned
here's a helpful guide of who to root for
- gently caress Texas. specifically the Astros.
- but also gently caress the Rangers
- go Phillies, Garrett Stubbs and his vibes jawn can't be stopped

It's also possible that the entire AL is composed of frauds and the Rangers are just currently the least fraudy of all of them

Maybe good pitching is getting good hitting out? I hate all these dumb fraud and dogshit garbage memes. It’s the playoffs. Every team but one loses.

I don’t trust the Rangers bullpen to hold a 2 run lead for 3 innings. If we see Chapman then congrats to the Astros.
