C'mon Alvarez, get us back into this game with a dinger

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

Now would be a good time for Yordan to get going

 2nd guess what? In what scenario do you not go with Verlander tonight on full rest? Only a fucking idiot doesn't start him. 

But there are plenty of idiots out there who will say save him for 6 at home.

I am not one of those people. But a bullpen game tomorrow will not be ideal.

[Colonel Sanders 1332]

Are Buck and Smoltz wearing Yankees jerseys?  

[Scraps 13531]

The yankee tears are gonna taste even better after we beat them spotting them a 3 run lead

I am one of those idiots and was and still would have, but I still think we can win this game. Far from over.

[thetruth 149]

Run up that pitch count, get to that bullpen. It has to show signs of wear after all the innings they've thrown. 

[perfectchaos007 6593]

Well at least Alvarez raised Paxton's pitch count some

[Rockethorn1978 6061]

Alvarez is not ready for this stage

In the same camp. We will win tonight.

 At least you admit it. 

[Honeysucklerose 957]

Alvarez = lost. F’in lost

[TonyTexas 10478]

At a minimum, we need to inflate Paxton’s pitch count and get into their bullpen. Take away a few options for tomorrow’s bullpen game. 

[Sleepygrad 1029]

fuck yeah Marisnick

[Scraps 13531]

Come on Springer....oneeee timeeee !

[TexArcher 37455]

Helluva an AB for Jake right there!

[Mo Horn 8795]

 fuck

[David Dennison 18608]

4 for 37 with RISP sounds bad. Is that bad?

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

got the pitch count up at least. Hopefully JV has his shit together or it won't matter anyway.

[Sleepygrad 1029]

Verlander struggled in first innings some this year, we need him to settle down and chip away at the lead, we got this

[drewlaws 126]

Getting tired of watching Alvarez watch first pitches go right down the middle every at bat.

And up 3-1, I’m amazed at how smoltz and buck don’t talk about this. Astros haven’t even played close to potential and still 1 win away from the WS.

[Wishbone 4731]

Seems like Alvarez has “hit the wall”. He’s played more games this year than he ever has in one season in MLB. 

[henrygandorf 29174]

how come when the yankees pull their starters in the 4th/5th it counts as a paxton or severino start, but when the stros have urquidy go 5-6 tomorrow, it’s a “bullpen game”?

[UTexasFight 9369]

Alvarez = lost. F’in lost

He’s soooo Cerrano right now
. After he swung over that pitch, even turned and nodded his head “pretty good.”

Where is Nori Aoki when you need him...

It wouldn't be a bullpen game.  It would be an Urquidy/Peacock tandem start.  Hypothetically

[Mo Horn 8795]

That was closer than it needed to be

There ain’t gonna be any game tomorrow.

[TexArcher 37455]

Nice play, Bregs.  One more and let's go get some runs.

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19074]

The between inning bullshit is painful.

[kevwun 15595]

Ok, Paxon is already over 50 pitches.

[Dbeasy 14953]

Verlander walks off shaking his head, obviously thinking to himself “how could I screw up the 1st”.

Fuckin A, this is what I’m saying.

[patrickdrinksbeer 788]

Bull shit we were second guessing as soon as game 4 was cancelled so GFY with the begin nonsense.

finally time to ignore pimphand

[perfectchaos007 6593]

Paxton is in the groove now too. furk

Only if they can start laying of that high fastball, or keep it closer until they get into the bullpen. 

[cabowabo 4449]

We’re pressing against this guy. 

[Gourmand 7774]

You guys need to stop being lily livered lil bitches

Nice AB Brantley good lord

[TexArcher 37455]

Nice AB there for Bregs.  

More runs are coming tonight.

[Wishbone 4731]

Martha Focker! Cut this crap out and pummel these jackwads.

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19074]

Fucking doing trivia, witha family from Long Island, and the dad is wearing a fucking aggy hat. So Aggy and Yankee fan. Double fail.

Stab him. He’s obviously in need of killin’.

[Mo Horn 8795]

Time tested baseball adage. If you have an ace on the ropes early you better get to him, because he's going to settle. We weren't able to do it and they were. Gonna have to wait until we get to the bullpen. 

[Wishbone 4731]

Dammit man.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Yordan is an absolute joke at the plate

[GottaB 589]

1 for fucking 17.

[Limp Brisket 546]

Hey Siri who’s leading the fucking ALCS 3-1?
