Major offseason goal for the Astros is Dana Brown preventing Jim Crane from signing Ryne Stanek to a 4yr/50m contract. Other than that, not much to do. Sign Tucker to an extension while his stock is as low as we're ever gonna see it.

Better hope Bohm, Stott, and Castellanos do something tomorrow or the team is toast

I'm amazed it took another team this long to figure it out.

Ranger gives them a chance, but it's gonna be a horrible loving nail-biter, and I do not want to see Kerkering or Kimbrel.

i mean that series both trea and casty were raking so the phillies still probably pull it out but it definitely goes 5

the philadelphia phillies are dogshit garbage (but they will win tonight)

I know, I'm laying it on thick, but Snitker has traditionally let Harper kill the Braves.

If your team is in the world series and it won't put you in the poor house please find a way to go. Like others have said it might not happen again anytime soon and you'll be so mad if you miss the chance overthinking it!

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

I think the posters might be right, now that the Astros are out why do we need to watch the world series? The great evil has been stopped, and in emphatic fashion. It's just a denouement
