GDT: 2019 ALCS: (1) Houston Astros vs (2) New York Yankees - HOU wins 4-2

[BMOK33]

This series is very similar to the ALCS last year. It is over.

Tonight is similar in that I recall thinking there was no way Houston was going to go down 3-1 and they did. Felt same about Yankees tonight. In that park though this isn’t over yet

They have scored 2 runs since the 5th inning of game 2. This game is over.

Throw strikes James.

Sanchez might not be dead afterall.

 

[BKIslandersFan]

That seems a bit far fetched, might as well go with Leafs win the cup. The Yankees aren't far away.

Exactly how are they going to improve this rotation? Cashman almost never does that right.

They have to sign Cole or Strasburg.

 

[BMOK33]

James was lucky that 1-2 pitch to Urshela wasn’t hit to boston

 

[Halladay]

LeMahieu with a double. James should be pulled.

 

[BKIslandersFan]

They have to sign Cole or Strasburg.

Lol yea he’s doing that.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Easy inning for Harris.

Ottavino is in. OK Boone.

 

[Langdon Alger]

Encarnacion is so terrible.

Might be worse than Sanchez right now.

I love Edwin, but I can’t cheer for the Yankees. I guess I can cheer for him to do well, but for his team to still lose.

 

[Halladay]

CC coming in.

 

[Halladay]

That was really dumb by Gurriel, got lucky.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

That is how CC's career very likely ends. Sad!

 

[OKOptimistic]

farewell CC

 

[c9777666]

Other than the first 4 games of ATL/STL and game 5 of LAD/WAS, these playoffs have not exactly been the stuff of legend.

 

[Halladay]

TBH I thought CC was done in 2014.

 

[c9777666]

This feels like a rerun of last year’s ALCS- heavily hyped, not living up to the billing

Cole Strasburg take your pick

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Hinch is not F'ing around, going to his best relievers.

Gotta think Verlander starts tomorrow with 4 days of rest but an argument could be made that going full bullpen tomorrow is not a bad idea.

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

Coming in to the game late here but the Yankees hitters just seem defeated up there. I mean I guess it’s a 4 run deficit with just a few outs left in the game but still.

Well I wanted to see Houston win in game 7 but it’s looking like it will need a miracle to get there

Yankees defence

Disgraceful. Bunch of wastes of oxygens.

If he starts Saturday it means he wont pitch til game 3 unless he goes on short rest in game 2.

The Astros have been good tonight tacking on runs.

if you Throw Verlander In G5 and lose, then you’re gambling with a bullpen game 6.

Can we just lock this thread? its over. Yankees are trash.
