Oh cool Astros aren't going to do poo poo to Kluber if they're going to give him the outside 9 inches.

I certainly appreciate him coming in right now but why is Bauer not the Game 2 starter?

I'm extremely torn, because I'm not sure I've ever felt this confident about a playoff series victory before. The Astros seem like the far superior team.

Feel free to quote this post when it inevitably bites me in the rear end.

As long as White has the DH spot on lockdown I'm fine. No more Gattis please.

Tyler Bauer really isn't that great out of the pen - surprised they keep going to him.

I still have some confidence in today - the Indians pen is suspect and they're going to have to go to it for 12 outs.

I think the 7th is where the Astros will do damage.

Keuchel did much better than I thought he would. So did Clevinger.

I agree that the 7th is the Astros best chance to score. If they can't then you can pretty much wrap this one up.

I wouldn't go quite that far, they should have a decent shot in the 9th assuming a couple of people can get on base. However, the Astros have three black holes in their line up back to back to back so they have to hope to get past that. It's why the 6th inning was largely a wash.

Hey, Astros fans..for rest of the postseason:

Marwin at SS
Kemp at LF ?

That window's looking awfully heavy Indians, may just want to go ahead and let it close...

Indians trying to be the team that lays down the most this postseason. At least try to act like you're more than just happy to be there.

The Indians still put up more of a fight than the Rockies

(if the score holds)

Brewers Runs - 13
Rockies Runs - 2

Run Difference - 11

Astros Runs - 20
Indians Runs - 5

Run Difference - 15

The Indians were actually worse than the Rockies! But, lets be real, these are the two worst teams in the playoffs still. The Astros and Brewers should have showed their superiority, and they did.

I will not feel nearly this confident against the Yankees or Red Sox. But I never had doubt in this series.

That's a god drat insult. I'll say it yet again, Astros posting is nowhere near as bad as Cubs posting.
