Davey says no game 3 starter as they may use Corbin out of the bullpen in 1 or 2.   Howie likely to DH (obviously)

I don't want to even think about it.  This is all house money to me right now.

Astros announced that roof will be closed for games 1 and 2. Nice and climate controlled for Stras.

They deserve it for that!

Absolutely. That account has been backed up by several other people who were there but the team issued a statement denying everything. Unbelievable.

Really bad press for the Astros:

The Yankees had Chapman closing - domestic violence isn’t really a barrier to playing in the mlb

But Karma, got him, in the form of all-around good guy Altuve. It will be nice when karma gets to Osuna, in the form of any of our good guys!  I vote Zim!

Not really sure what the issue is. Can't count the number of times I slapped my significant other around then unloaded a clip* in the garage.

These bums aren't going to know what hits 'em when Mad Max, Stephen "The Dream" Strasburg, Antoni Rendon, and Juan "The truth and nothing but the truth" Soto bang them senseless. 

BRING IT ON BABBY!

Ridiculous. Lost for words. Women in baseball clubhouses have such a high tolerance for borderline intolerable things. The idea that anyone would make this up...

Also, we define “a difficult time” differently. He gave up a homer. He hadn’t been, you know, beaten up by a spouse.

West Palm World Series? Astros, Nationals still owe millions on ballpark, contractors say

Some builders of the Ballpark of the Palm Beaches, spring home to the Houston Astros and Washington Nationals, want to know “why two hugely successful major league baseball teams refuse to pay their bills″

Loser pays?

That's weird.

Eaton and Soto are lefties. Rendon, Cabrera, and Kendrick crush everything. Robles and Turner are actually a bit better against RHP. Zimmerman is only Nats regular in the field who struggles against RHP.

I was told the Astros were a perfect machine, but realizing they have no left handed pitcher in the pen raises my hopes.
