Well, Springer will get another shot at least.

How about easiest double play possible? Dusty should have told him not to swing. Either walk or strike out.

Was thinking the same, but I know how I feel. They're terrible.

If he just sees 4 balls, we are good.

If you always expect the worst, then you can only be pleasantly surprised. You can never be disappointed.

Same streaky team at the plate for the last 4 years. Not the same pitching staff.

Still close and Correa or Brantley could even it. But blew our chances. Needed at least 3 from the earlier innings. It's also getting in the Astros heads. Have to win this one or the series is probably over.

Fucking around now. Will probably start pressing too hard at bat now too.

Kiermaier makes 10 million. Zunino makes 4.5 million. The other guys pay the owner 2 million for the honor of playing, I guess.

Echo.

Yep. Reminiscent of game 7 last year. Hitting hard but can't score much.

Need a 5 run cushion before we trot the middle relievers out there.

Does Snell ever sleep? He is carrying some baggage under the eyes. Maybe he needs to try some cucumber slices or something.

Maybe we'll beat them by -167.

Its not dissimilar. That Rockets team lolligagged through the regular season too. But also the Astros looked even worse because they were completely incapable of winning extra innings games with the man on 2nd format.

Dammit. I was hoping for 30 year old single malt Yankee tears. Now I have to settle for homeless vodka yankee tears. I guess I can still get drunk but its not the same thing.

He is a private citizen on private insurance. If that happened, it should be investigated and the hospital admin should be investigated as well.

Can Charon's boat handle that? He might need to upgrade or Christie is going to put that boat at the bottom of the Styx.

As if Trump wouldn't have drained the life force from 1000s of actual newborns if it would have helped him live 15 minutes longer. He would probably even steal Barron's organs if Barron was his only match. Otherwise, homeless people with Trump's blood type need to have their heads on a swivel.

The really old ones are. The middling old ones weren't that great. Every time I went to Shea Stadium, I felt like there was a good chance it could collapse that day.

Yep. Sometimes its nice to go to a game when you don't have a rooting interest. You have more appreciation for good plays made by either team. I have only gotten that in Philly though. I still generally pull for the Mets and against the Yankees at their games. Next year, I need to try to hit some Orioles, Nats, and Red Sox games. Fenway has always been an "I'll do it next year" thing, but next year always turns into next year.

The real problem is that they represent a national platform and don't represent their district at all. They come back to the district to sell you that national platform every 2 years, but they don't ask or care what their constituents want that may differ from that national platform. And they only pretend to care during election season. I would love to see a representative that actually represents. "We have this bill coming up, let me see how my constituents feel about it before I vote on it." We need to see representative become a "local" election.

It is refreshing to see an MD that understands the word data is plural. That's PhD in engineering territory.

I appreciate that your Yankee, Cowboy, and Laker fanships are all real and heartfelt. Most Astros fans are from Texas or from Houston specifically. How does one "bandwagon" their home city's team? Interest wanes in down years and increases in winning years, but fans are always fans. I go to more Yankees games per year than you've been to in your life, and I've been to more Mets games than I have been to Astros and Yankee games combined. But all that means is that I'm an adult that likes to watch baseball and can afford to go to games. It doesn't make me a true fan of either one even if I'm coming around to the Mets being my second favorite team. As a poor kid in Houston, I went to games when I was lucky enough to get tickets, but otherwise watched nearly every single game on TV. That made me a fan. But really, I'm a fan of all Houston teams. Watched plenty of Hotshots and Comets games too. The fact is that you chose the big hated name because you wanted to be different or a dick to your friends who were fans of Texas teams. If you grew up in the Bronx, you'd probably be a Red Sox fan for the same reason.

There is no way that is his heart rate and blood pressure even on his best day. Who do they think they are kidding with this shit? Kim Jong Un's doctors give more truthful reporting than that. Its strange that Trump hasn't figured out that you can sell the huge lie better if you mix little truths in with it.
