    Damn, they nailed the Verlander trade three years ago?!?!?!

    I don't think the Stros can match the Dodgers. They aren't going to be able to hide their bullpen.

    I really wish they’d bring those uniforms back.

    The Astros' only hope is if the Dodgers hit that same funk they hit in September and Kershaw turns into the guy who can go six but turns into shit in the seventh from playoffs past. Is there really any chance this goes more than 5?

    To be fair, the Astros were 27 games over .500 and had already run away with the AL West when they traded for Verlander. They don't make the World Series without him, but it's not like they weren't a playoff team before he arrived.

    Some of those bullpen options looked good at times this season, but I'm not sure who the Astros can trust at this point.

    They knew three years ago we'd screw up the WC?

    So now the pressure's really on the Brewers.

    Maybe I’m late to the party on this, but the 2017 ALCS forced the Yankees to come to Houston after all, no matter if those bastards were still running things.
